Heat flux and radiative flux are specific cases of energy flux that involve the rate of transfer of heat and radiation (photons) respectively. Energy flux is a function of time as well as area, and has units of J/m 2 /s or W/m 2. It is sometimes also referred to as flux density. In more technical terms, flux density is defined as the energy travelling over an area perpendicular to the flow of energy divided by time and by area. Four types of energy fluxes for ideal (flat and smooth) surfaces have been identified so far.
Flux can also be used as a verb and means to flow or to cause to become fluid.. It's also a physics term, which refers to the strength of a force or the rate of the flow of a fluid. Usage Examples: Atmospheric conditions are in a state of flux, and not just because of our own industrial emissions.ips: Flux, used as a noun, refers to the ebb and flow of tides, ideas, or trends. We often use it in the phrase in a state of flux.. For instance, concentrations of nutrients in the ocean are always in a state of flux, depending on various factors.
