Three different fractional models of Oldroyd-B fluid are considered in this work. Blood is taken as a special example of Oldroyd-B fluid (base fluid) with the suspension of gold nanoparticles, making the solution a biomagnetic non-Newtonian nanofluid. Based on three different definitions of fractional operators, three different models of the resulting nanofluid are developed. These three operators are based on the definitions of Caputo (C), Caputo–Fabrizio (CF), and Atnagana–Baleanu in the Caputo sense (ABC). Nanofluid is taken over an upright plate with ramped wall heating and time-dependent fluid velocity at the sidewall. The effects of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) and porous medium are also considered. Triple fractional analysis is performed to solve the resulting three models, based on three different fractional operators. The Laplace transform is applied to each problem separately, and Zakian’s numerical algorithm is used for the Laplace inversion. The solutions are presented in various graphs with physical arguments. Results are computed and shown in various plots. The empirical results indicate that, for ramped temperature, the temperature field is highest for the ABC derivative, followed by the CF and Caputo fractional derivatives. In contrast, for isothermal temperature, the temperature field of C-derivative is higher than the CF and ABC derivatives, respectively. It was noticed that the velocity field for the ABC derivative is higher than the CF and Caputo fractional derivatives for ramped velocity. However, the velocity field for the Caputo fractional derivative is lower than the ABC and CF for isothermal velocity.
