The study addresses a selected issue in industrial cooling, that is, how to transport heat more efficiently when the process involves fiber spinning and extrusion, in which conventional fluids usually cannot work. We considered a ternary nanofluid that passed around a porous stretching cylinder and particularly considered the synergistic effect of quadratic thermal buoyancy, and the thermally generated double-diffusive heat and solute (TGDHS) effect. Through the Casson fluid model and considering the magnetic fields, radiations, and nonlinear chemical reactions, we reduced complex PDEs to simple ODEs. The results were evident using the BVP4C numerical method. Although in reality, magnetic fields and thermal radiation become a retarding force, the quadratic thermal buoyancy is the driving force behind accelerating the flow. An important trade-off that we discovered is that a heavier Casson fluid reduces heat and mass transfer. The addition of Nimonic 80A, AA7072, and AA7075 nanoparticles to ethylene glycol consistently enhances heat transfer, outperforming the base fluid by 7.8% even at low concentrations. While AA7072 and AA7075 drive significant increases of over 16%, Nimonic 80A offers a much more marginal contribution of 1.23%. Consequently, the Nusselt number is far more sensitive to the concentration of the aluminum alloys than to the Nimonic 80A. Finally, this work demonstrates that the most significant parameter in intensifying convective heat and mass transfer in such industrial systems is the strong forces of buoyancy.
