The present work deals with the convective double diffusive magneto-cross-nanofluid flow across the permeable wedge. Inclined magnetic field, electro-osmosis, heat source-sink parameter, and solar radiation process are the manuscript's standout characteristics. The numerical simulation of the given flow results in a system of generic nonlinear differential equations, which are then exactly transformed into ordinary differential equations. The visual results are drawn using the bvp4c approach to see the effects of relevant changing elements across the porous wedge. The velocity field generally behaves as the increasing function of thermal and solutal Grashof number but surges along the nanofluid Grashof number. The Brownian diffusion coefficient surges the temperature and double-diffusivity, while minors the concentration. The radiation increases the temperature while lowering the concentration rate and the double diffusivity due to the relative importance of thermal radiation and conduction heat transfer. The nanofluid Lewis number particularly slows down the double-diffusivity profile. Electro-osmotic flow is a typical technique in chemical analysis, soil analysis and processing, and microfluidic devices employing structures with high-voltage surfaces. In the limiting case, current results are also compared to previously published literature. The graphical sketches of local skin friction, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number contour elaborated our analyses more precisely. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
