The purpose of this paper to analyze the effect of Soret with heat and mass transfer on an unsteady two-dimensional Magnetohydrodynamics flow through a porous medium under the influence of the uniform transverse magnetic field in a rotating parallel plate is considered.

A mathematical model was developed using the slip conditions under unsteady state situations. Analytical expressions for the velocity, temperature and concentration profiles, wall shear stress, rates of heat and mass transfer and volumetric flow rate were obtained and computationally discussed with respect to the non-dimensional parameters. Further, the velocity reduces with increasing Hartmann number M and increases with Grashof number Gr and permeability parameter K.

It is observed that temperature reduces with an increase in Prandtl number Pr and ω. It is noted that the thermal radiation increases with increase in Soret number Sr, Schmidt number Sc, Prandtl number pr and ω.

Concentration decreases with an increase in radiation parameter R and chemical reaction parameter Kc.
