P.s.
Flux units = X per AREA per TIME
Flow units = X per Time (usually it should mean that this Flow is taken over SOME AREA but not “dA”(not infinitesimal area)
P.p.s.
Proof that there some poeple who thinks my way?
look here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux
"Flux as flow rate per unit area"
But yes… Flux is very often is used as a synonim for FLOW… It really bugs me.
ok. Any karma to me?

Thank you very much, this way I’m learn, I should understand the intuition behind a topic.
You are brilliant.
I have gone up and down through soooo many google sites for vector calculus…this is the first one that made complete sense! Great analogies, thanks for the informal tone.
Thank you for putting this together, you’re a lifesaver!
It was fantestic.I am feeling very nice after study about flux on this site because the explanation was very nice and everything was clear.
How do I determine the net flux across the surface of the above described control volume (three dimensional control volume of uniform two dimensional cross section being the Kock snowflake and with the third dimension being a unit height)?
Hi Kalid, This is the first time I’ve found flux explained in a way that I can understand it. I might just be able to use the concept properly now and be able to calculate the flux in a variety of situations. I might also pass the Open University exam!
