Definitions for "Flux "
The state of being liquid through heat; fusion.
Any substance or mixture used to promote the fusion of metals or minerals, as alkalies, borax, lime, fluorite.
To cause to become fluid; to fuse.
A fluid discharge from the bowels or other part; especially, an excessive and morbid discharge; as, the bloody flux or dysentery. See Bloody flux.
The matter thus discharged.
To cause a discharge from; to purge.
The act of flowing; a continuous moving on or passing by, as of a flowing stream; constant succession; change.

Flowing; unstable; inconstant; variable.
The strength of a magnetic field represented by lines of force. Symbol f
A measure of the density of magnetic field lines over a surface area. Flux/area is proportional to the average force on a charged particle on the surface.
See Magnetic Field

Flux is the forth album by Love Spirals Downwards, an Ethereal band on the US record label, Projekt. It is stylistically quite different from their previous albums, and is more in line with the atmospheric drum'n'bass of artists on Good Looking Records.
Flux consists of utility APIs that apply compression and strong cryptography to I/O channels , do strong hashing, and exchange C structs in an architecture-independent fashion. It also provides n-ary trees whose contents can be serialized to human-readable files or network streams, along with some related utilities. It is written in C and integrates with the GLib main loop.
There are several types of fluxes used in the aluminium industry, having different applications, for example to reduce hydrogen gas levels or to remove dross.
The setting in of the tide toward the shore, -- the ebb being called the reflux.
Rate of transfer of a quantity (water, heat, etc.) across a surface.
become liquid or fluid when heated; "the frozen fat liquefied"
The rate that energy crosses a given surface (real or imaginary).
In the various subfields of physics, there exist two common usages of the term flux, both with rigorous mathematical frameworks.
A term to describe the shuffling of positions in search engine results in between major updates. - Google, also known as The Big G or The Mighty G.
The annual amount of organic matter being transferred (e.g. by litterfall) from one compartment to another.
Flux, or metabolic flux is the rate of turnover of molecules through a metabolic pathway or an enzyme. Within cells regulation of flux is vital for all metabolic pathways to regulate the metabolic pathway's activity under different conditions. Flux is therefore of great interest in metabolic network modelling, where it is analysed via flux balance analysis.
Something you put in to keep the piece clean.
A material applied to the surface of copper pipes and fittingss to assist in the cleaning and bonding process
