The rising industrial demand for technological advancement in improving their working fluids and thermal augmentation has prompted studies on various non-Newtonian fluids and nanofluids. These play momentous role in many engineering devices and electronics development. Therefore, this study seeks to examine the thermal performance of ternary hybridized magneto-couple stress nanofluids in permeable media with nonlinear thermofluidic properties. The dispersion of suspended cobalt ferrite CoFe2O4, titanium dioxide TiO2 and magnesium oxide MgO nanoparticles occurs in H2O conventional solvent. With isothermal energy, the tri-hybrid nanofluid is controlled by stretchy velocity, magnetic field, gravity and Ohmic heating. An invariant transmutation of the partial derivative model is offered using similarity variables. The complete solutions to the model are obtained via Chebyshev technique coupled with integrated collocation method. From the graphically presented results, it is revealed that strong heat transfer is provided by ternary CoFe2O4+Ti02+MgO nanofluids compared to CoFe2O4+Ti02 and CoFe2O4 nanofluids. Also, the nanofluid concentration volume fraction enhanced thermal distribution and performance in the system.
