The present study deals with analytical and numerical investigation to examine the magnetic field effect on the species separation induced by combined effects of convection and Soret phenomenon in an inclined porous cavity saturated by an electrically conductive binary mixture.The porous medium is modeled according to Darcy-Brinkman's law and assumed to be homogeneous and isotropic. The relevant parameters for the problem are the thermal Rayleigh number , the Lewis number , the inclination angle of the cavity , the separation parameter , the Darcy number , the Hartmann number and the aspect ratio of the cavity . This study covers the limiting cases of Darcy and pure fluid media.
