Abstract: Analysis of the effects of applying variable pressure gradient to a Magnetohydrodynamic fluid flowing between two parallel plates under the influence of variable transverse magnetic fields are investigated. The study involves a steady, incompressible hydromagnetic fluid flowing through parallel plates. The upper plate is considered porous moving in the opposite direction to the fluid flow while the lower plate remains stationary. The results obtained shows that velocity profiles decreases whenever Reynold number, magnetic number or suction parameter is increased. As the pressure gradient is increased, velocity of the flow increased but temperature decreased. Also, increase in suction number yields to increase in temperature profile.
