Hybrid nanofluid are a new fluid created by combining two different types of nanoparticles dispersed in a base fluid to enhance the properties of base fluid. The incorporation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) into a base fluid greatly enhances heat transfer performance over metal-based nanofluids. Partial differential equations (PDEs) are then transformed into simpler form of Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using similarity transformation variables. The obtained ODEs are then encoded in Maple software using the Runge-Kutta Fehlberg Fourth Fifth (RKF45) method. By comparing the findings with those from earlier research, the authenticity of the result is confirmed. The results and discussion are focused on several parameters, including the stretching parameter, heat sink/source parameter, magnetic field parameter and aligned angle parameter over the velocity and temperature profiles. The results show that the velocity profile increases due to the increasing stretching parameter and decreases due to increasing aligned angle parameter and magnetic field parameter. The increasing value of heat source/sink parameter showed no effect on velocity. The temperature profile increases due to the increasing magnetic field parameter and aligned angle parameter. Meanwhile, the temperature profile decreases owing to the increase of stretching parameter and heat source/sink parameter. Findings of this study is related to the aerospace applications, specifically in the development of thermal protection systems where the thermal load management depends on the material conductive properties.
