Abstract
The model of mass transfer on free convective flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid past vertically porous plate through a porous medium with time dependant permeability and oscillatory suction in presence of a transverse magnetic field is considered. Perturbation technique is obtained the solution for velocity field and concentration distribution analytically. The effects of the flow parameters on the velocity field and concentration distribution are presented with the aid of figures. Also, the skin friction and the rate of mass transfer are calculated with the aid of tables.
