• A scientometrics analysis of magnetic nanofluids was performed. • Clarivate database (2018–2022) was used as a data source. • Dynamic maps of the connection of the authors, institutions, and countries were reported. • Chamkha, Ali J was the most productive and most cited author. • Many of the publications originated from India, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia. The control of thermophysical, fluid flow, and structure of nanofluids using a magnetic field has attracted the focus of many recent researchers in the field. Despite the broad range and application of the magnetic nanofluids, there is no scientometric or thematic analysis revealing the number and distribution of the publications and citations in the field and dynamic maps of the connection of the authors, institutions, and countries. The current research aims to comprehensively analyze the publications and dynamic world network connections of authors, institutes, and countries. Recent five-year publications (2018–2022) were retrieved from the Clarivate database (2224 documents) and were analyzed using an in-house code. The VOSViwer software was also used for the plot of the maps. The results showed Chamkha, Ali J was the most productive author (104 publications) and also the most cited author in the field (2029 citations) with the highest H-Index (33). Babol Noshirvani University has the highest rank among top universities concerning two different parameters: total citations and citations per paper. King Khalid University and Islamic Azad University have the highest rank in total publications and h-index. The highest number of publications also belonged to India, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia. Moreover, these countries were also influential contributors to MNF, and other countries were linked to these three countries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
