Purpose This paper aims to model and analyze Jeffery Hamel’s channel flow with the magnetohydrodynamics second-grade hybrid nanofluid. Considering the importance of studying the velocity slip and temperature jump in the boundary conditions of the flow, which leads to results close to reality, this paper intends to analyze the mentioned topic in the convergent and divergent channels that have significant applications. Design/methodology/approach The examination is conducted on a EG-H_2 O <30%–70%> base fluid that contains hybrid nanoparticles (i.e. SWCNT-MWCNT). To ensure comprehensive results, this study also considers the effects of thermal radiation, thermal sink/source, rotating convergent-divergent channels and magnetic fields. Initially, the governing equations are formulated in cylindrical coordinates and then simplified to ordinary differential equations through appropriate transformations. These equations are solved using the Explicit Runge–Kutta numerical method, and the results are compared with previous studies for validation. Findings After the validation, the effect of the governing parameters on the temperature and velocity of the second-grade hybrid nanofluid has been investigated by means of various and comprehensive contours. In the following, the issue of entropy generation and its related graphical results for this problem is presented. The mentioned contours and graphs accurately display the influence of problem parameters, including velocity slip and temperature jump. Besides, when thermal radiation is introduced (Rd = +0.1 and Rd = +0.2), entropy generation in convergent-divergent channels decreases by 7% and 14%, respectively, compared to conditions without thermal radiation (Rd = 0). Conversely, increasing the thermal sink/source from 0 to 4 leads to an 8% increase in entropy generation at Q = 2 and a 17% increase at Q = 4 in both types of channels. The details of the analysis of contours and the entropy generation results are fully mentioned in the body of the paper. Originality/value There are many studies on convergent and divergent channels, but this study comprehensively investigates the effects of velocity slip and temperature jump and certainly, this geometry with the specifications presented in this paper has not been explored before. Among the other distinctive features of this paper compared to previous works, the authors can mention the presentation of velocity and temperature results in the form of contours, which makes the physical analysis of the problem simpler.
