In this work, we utilize a weighted ψ-Weyl fractional operator to establish several new refinements of the well known classical Hermite–Hadamard integral inequalities, formulated for a generalized class of harmonically convex Godunova–Levin functions. To demonstrate the correctness and applicability of these new results, we support them with nontrivial numerical examples along with visual graphical illustrations.
