Abstract: Magnetohydrodynamic flow of nanofluids and heat transfer between two horizontal plates in a rotating system have been examined numerically. In order to do this, the group method of data handling (GMDH)-type neural networks is used to calculate Nusselt number formulation. Results indicate that GMDH-type NN in comparison with fourth-order Runge–Kutta integration scheme provides an effective means of efficiently recognizing the patterns in data and accurately predicting a performance. Single-phase model is used in this study. Similar solution is used in order to obtain ordinary differential equation. The effects of nanoparticle volume fraction, magnetic parameter, wall injection/suction parameter and Reynolds number on Nusselt number are studied by sensitivity analyses. The results show that Nusselt number is an increasing function of Reynolds number and volume fraction of nanoparticles but it is a decreasing function of magnetic parameter. Also, it can be found that wall injection/suction parameter has no significant effect on rate of heat transfer.
