Abstract:- This paper investigates governing equations for unsteady Magnetohydrodynamic convective oscillatory flow with thermal radiation and soret effect through a semi-infinite vertical permeable moving plate with; one stationary and the other non-stationary embedded in a porous medium via heat absorption. The velocity was maintained at a constant value and the flow was subject to a transverse magnetic field. The computed values obtained from the analytical solution for the velocity temperature, concentration field, skin friction coefficient, Peclet number, Schmidt and Reynolds number with their amplitude and phase are presented graphically. After a suitable transformation of the governing partial differential equations was transformed to ordinary differential equation. These equations were solved analytically by using two-term harmonic and non-harmonic functions. The velocity decreases with increase in Peclet number, the magnetic field parameter whereas reverse trend is seen with increasing the heat generation parameter, radiation parameter, porous parameters, soret number and Grashof numbers. The temperature decreases as the values of Peclet number increases and the reverse is seen by increasing the values of thermal radiation parameter, heat source parameter, the concentration increases as the values of the Peclet number increases, despite increase in radiation and Grashof number, heat transfer remains the same.
