The purpose of present problem is to studies of effects of variable viscosity and thermal radiation on unsteady laminar flow of dusty conducting fluid between parallel porous plates through porous medium with temperature dependent viscosity. The fluid is considered as unsteady laminar flow through porous medium and acted upon by a constant pressure gradient and an external uniform magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the plates. It is assumed that the parallel plates are porous and subjected to a uniform suction from above and injection from below. It is also considered the viscosity is temperature dependent. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations are solved finite difference approximation. The results for temperature field and velocity for fluids and dust particles have been obtain numerically and displayed graphically.
