<p>The present study deals with the effects of radiation and mass transfer on a laminar unsteady free convective flow of a viscous, incompressible, electrically conducting and chemically reacting fluid past a vertical surface in a rotating porous medium. It is assumed that the surface is rotating with angular velocity Ω. The governing mathematical equations are developed and solved by adopting complex variable notations and the analytical expressions for velocity, temperature and concentration fields are obtained. The effects of various parameters on mean primary velocity, mean secondary velocity, mean temperature, mean concentration, transient primary velocity, transient secondary velocity, transient temperature and transient concentration have been discussed and shown graphically. Further, the consequences of different parameters on rate of heat transfer coefficient (Nusselt number), rate of mass transfer coefficient (Sherwood number) and drag coefficient (mean skin-friction) are analysed. It is observed that the mean and transient primary velocities increase with the radiation parameter E, while reverse phenomena are observed for the Schmidt number, Sc, and the chemical reaction parameter, γ.
