The act of flowing; a continuous moving on or passing by, as of a flowing stream; constant succession; change.
The quantity of a fluid that crosses a unit area of a given surface in a unit of time.
Flowing; unstable; inconstant; variable.
the rate at which heat (energy, radiation, carbon dioxide, water vapour etc) flows across unit area (e.g. heat flux is the flow of heat in a heat exchange process)
The amount of permeate produced by a membrane, typically expressed in volume per membrane area per unit time, Gallons per Foot2 of membrane per Day (GFD).
The flow of Earth's chemicals from one reservoir to another. (See also Geochemical cycle.)
measurement which describes the rate of particle flow
The volume of material crossing or impinging on a given cross-sectional area of a surface per unit time divided by the area of the cross section.
the flow of energy, usually measured in Watts per square meter
amount of radiation passing through a square meter per second.
The movement of a mass past a surface, plane, or boundary. The units are mass per unit area per unit time or [Kg/m2-hour].
Shifts or flows of carbon over time from one pool to another (e.g. from the atmosphere to the forest). (Australia)
Acts 28: 8] Act of flowing, passing as a fluid. Medically an issue or evacuation from the bowels or other part; as the bloody flux of dysentery.
(physics) the number of flux changes per unit area
move or progress freely as if in a stream; "The crowd flowed out of the stadium"
The amount of some substance flowing across a given area per unit time.
The rate at which a Reverse Osmosis Membrane allows water to pass through it.
the volume of fluid crossing a unit cross-sectional surface area per unit time. Groundwater - that part of the subsurface water that is in the saturated zone.
the amount of a substance such as water, heat, or a nutrient, flowing from or over a given area per unit time.
(f, W m-2) the amount of energy received per square metre per second, usually at a particular frequency (monochromatic flux) or integrated over a particular range (e.g., visual flux). Astronomers tend to quote apparent magnitudes (see below) instead of flux, mainly for historical reasons.
Number of photons per second within a defined energy band passing through a defined area. Units: photons / sec / 0.1% bandwidth
Any liquid added to another liquid to improve flow, usually to prevent the formation of oxides.
The rate of volume flow of a fluid or gas per second (or other unit of time).
Is the Flow Uncertainty Index. It refers to a financial model developed for the National Association of Insurance Commissioners to quantify the relative risk or variability of CMOs over a range of interest rate scenarios.
The flow of magnetic energy in a circuit.
A measure of the amount of energy given off by an astronomical object over a fixed amount of time and area. Flux measurements make it easy for astronomers to compare the relative energy output of objects with very different sizes and ages.
The amount of something (such as energy) passing through a surface per unit time.
Mass or volume rate of transfer through membrane surface, expressed as gal / ft2 / day.
The amount of radiation crossing a surface per unit of time, often expressed in "integral form" as particles per unit area per unit time.
Number of particles per unit area per unit time. The solar wind proton flux is 3 x 108/cm2-sec.
See Luminous Flux.
A flow of matter or energy of which direction, rate and density can be determined.
Generically; A flow through a unit area (i.e. W/m2).
Time rate of flow of energy; the radiant or luminous power in a beam.
an unusually copious flowing of a liquid from the bowels or another organ
power per unit area. The flux from the Sun at the Earth is 1367 Watts per square meter. This total power is often divided up into different frequency or wavelength bands, giving for example Watts per square meter per Hertz or ergs per square cm per second per micron. 1 Jansky is 10-26 Watts per square meter per Hertz.
In crossflow filtration, the unit membrane throughput, usually expressed in volume per unit time per area, e.g. liters per hour per m2. A relationship of flow to surface area; expressed in gallons per minute per square foot.
The amount or volume of a substance passing through a given unit of a membrane or filter in a given amount of time.
The rate of flow of a physical quantitiy through a reference surface.
the amount of flow per unit time (i.e. energy flux or radiation flux)
The rate at which energy or matter crosses a unit area of a surface.
the flow, or rate of flow, of a fluid.
The rate of particle flow over time.
The rate of flow per unit area of some quantity such as the flux of cosmic rays or the flux of particles in the solar wind.
The flow of molecules through a series of biochemical steps (i.e. a pathway); expressed as a rate, in units of chemical mass/time.
2nd-kind boundary condition defining a flow density in m/s or m2/s.
The flow rate of water through reverse osmosis membranes, per square foot of surface.
The amount of energy flowing through a givenarea in a given amount of time, usually expressed as counts per area persecond.
The rate at which a substance flows. The Watt is a unit of energy flux, because it indicates the amount of energy (in joules) that flows every second.
the amount of energy passing through a given area (e.g., one square centimeter) in a second. It is the apparent brightness of an object.
The radiant, or luminous, power of a light beam; the time rate of the flow of radiant energy across a given surface.
The time rate of flow. For example, volume per hour is the flux of a fluid.
Excessive flow or discharge. For example, in dysentery or excessive menstruation.
Rate of energy flow expressed as radiant power. Focus The ability of a lens or system to bring image radiation to a point of convergence within the confines of the active detector sensing area.
In cross flow filtration, the flow rate of product water through a reverse osmosis, electrodialysis, or ultrafiltration membrane.
Continuous flow of luminous energy
The flow of fluid, particles, or energy through a given area within a certain time. In astronomy, this term is often used to describe the rate at which light flows. For example, the amount of light (photons) striking a single square centimeter of a detector in one second is its flux.
