Abstract
The current study deals with the impacts of an inclined magnetic field on the double-diffusive convection of the nano-encapsulated phase change materials (NEPCM) suspended in an annulus between two super ellipses. A novel shape between two super ellipses having the positive numbers

. The controlling transformed equations are solved by employing the (ISPH) method. The heat/mass source with variable length is put on the left side of an annulus. Impacts of
