This paper is concerned with the study of flow, heat and mass transfer characteristics on the free convection MHD flow of second grade fluid past an exponentially accelerated vertical plate. It is assumed that the bounding plate has a ramped temperature and isothermal temperature in a porous medium. Analytic solution of momentum, energy and concentration equations are obtained in closed form by Laplace transform technique. From velocity, temperature and concentration fields, the exact expression of skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are derived. The results obtained show the impact of Prandtl number Pr, Grashof number Gr, Gm, Schmidt number Sc, magnetic parameter M, Soret number Sr, heat generation / absorption parameter H and time t on velocity, heat and mass transfer and clarified with the help of graphical illustrations.
