Ternary hybrid nanofluids offer promising roles in biomedical engineering, solar energy, atomic reactors, automobiles, and heat pipes. Through these facts and influenced by recent work in nanotechnology and their rich utilization, this particular research emphasizes the MWCNT (Multi wall carbon nano tube)-Au-Ag/blood ternary nanofluid flow through a bidirectional stretching sheet. The coupled non-linear partial differential equations (PDEs) for the developed model are altered into dimensionless ordinary differential equations (ODEs) via similarity transformations, also subsequently undertaken computationally via the spectral linearization methodology. The physical description of parameters is presented against the flow parameters graphically, also related physical quantities such as the Sherwood quantity and surface frictional force are exhibited. Furthermore, surface plots are presented to examine the boundary layer effect. The study reveals that increasing the stretchable ratio of the surface upsurges the y− velocity as a result of the thinning of the surface in this same direction, which reduces the resistance to fluid movement. Trihybrid nanofluid rapidity is less than the rapidity of hybrid nanofluid due to the increment of the number of molecules in the fluid which reduces the interspace between these molecules. Enhancing the Lorentz force and surface pores numbers reduces the surface frictional force factors of the ternary hybrid nanofluid.
