This investigation explores the analytical solutions to the time-fractional multi-dimensional Navier–Stokes (NS) problem using advanced approaches, namely the Aboodh residual power series method and the Aboodh transform iteration method, within the context of the Caputo operator. The NS equation governs the motion of fluid flow and is essential in fluid dynamics, engineering, and atmospheric sciences. Given the equation’s extensive and diverse applicability across several disciplines, we are motivated to conduct a thorough analysis to understand the complex dynamics associated with the nonlinear events it describes. For this purpose, we effectively handle the challenges posed by fractional derivatives by utilizing the Aboodh approach. This will enable us to obtain accurate analytical approximations for the time fractional multi-dimensional NS equation. By conducting thorough analysis and computational simulations, we provide evidence of the efficiency and dependability of the suggested methodologies in accurately representing the dynamic behavior of fractional fluid flow systems. This work enhances our comprehension of the utilization of fractional calculus in fluid dynamics and provides valuable analytical instruments for examining intricate flow phenomena. Its interdisciplinary nature ensures that the findings are applicable to various scientific and engineering fields, making the research highly versatile and impactful.
