Numerical investigation of viscous dissipation and mass transfer effects on an unsteady MHD free convection flow of an incompressible and electrically conducting fluid past an infinite vertical porous plate under the influence of uniform magnetic field considered normal to the plate has been carried out. The Ritz finite element method has been applied to solve dimensionless governing equations of the flow. The effects of physical parameters such as Prandtl number, Schmidt number, Eckert number, magnetic field parameter, porosity parameter, ratio of mass transfer parameter and time parameter on the fluid velocity, fluid temperature and fluid concentration are presented through the graphs and then discussed.
