A parametric study to investigate the effect of thermal diffusion (Soret effect) on an MHD mixed convective heat and mass transfer flow of an incompressible viscous electrically conducting fluid past a vertical porous plate. The magnetic reynolds number is assumed to be small that the induced magnetic field can be neglected as compared with the applied magnetic field. Sherwood number at the plate are demonstrated graphically for various values of the parameters involved in the problem
