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.
Magnetic flux. In physics, specifically electromagnetism, the magnetic flux (often denoted Ï or ÏB) through a surface is the surface integral of the normal component of the magnetic field B passing through that surface. The SI unit of magnetic flux is the weber (Wb) (in derived units: volt-seconds), and the CGS unit is the maxwell. Magnetic flux is usually measured with a fluxmeter, which contains measuring coils and electronics, that evaluates the change of voltage in the measuring coils to calculate the magnetic flux.
