Online published on 16 January, 2018. Abstract An attempt has been made to analyze the characteristics of MHD rotating double diffusive and chemically reactive fluid flow past a vertical porous plate with thermal radiation and heat generation. The non-dimensional governing equations involved in the present analysis are solved by using finite difference technique. The effects of various physical parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration along with skin friction, the rate of heat transfer in the form of Nusselt number and the rate of mass transfer in the form of Sherwood number are studied through the graphs and tables.
