The SI unit of electric flux is the volt-meter (V·m), or, equivalently, newton-meter squared per coulomb (N·m 2 ·C −1). Thus, the unit of electric flux expressed in terms of SI base units is kg·m 3 ·s −3 ·A −1. Its dimensional formula is L 3 M T −3 I −1.
No charge is enclosed by the sphere. Electric flux through its surface is zero. Gauss's law may be expressed as: [6] = where Φ E is the electric flux through a closed surface S enclosing any volume V, Q is the total charge enclosed within V, and ε 0 is the electric constant.
In physics, the electric displacement field (denoted by D), also called electric flux density, is a vector field that appears in Maxwell's equations. It accounts for the electromagnetic effects of polarization and that of an electric field , combining the two in an auxiliary field .

Lorentz force on a charged particle (of charge q) in motion (velocity v), used as the definition of the E field and B field.. Here subscripts e and m are used to differ between electric and magnetic charges.
A cylindrical Gaussian surface is commonly used to calculate the electric charge of an infinitely long, straight, 'ideal' wire. A Gaussian surface is a closed surface in three-dimensional space through which the flux of a vector field is calculated; usually the gravitational field, electric field, or magnetic field. [1]
As the electric field is irrotational, it is possible to express the electric field as the gradient of a scalar function, , called the electrostatic potential (also known as the voltage). An electric field, E {\displaystyle E} , points from regions of high electric potential to regions of low electric potential, expressed mathematically as
where is the flux. It is assumed that the total flux is composed of three elements: diffusion , advection , and electromigration . This implies that the concentration is affected by an ionic concentration gradient ∇ c {\displaystyle \nabla c} , flow velocity v {\displaystyle {\bf {v}}} , and an electric field E {\displaystyle {\bf {E}}} :
