  2. Dysentery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dysentery

    Dysentery (UK: / ˈ d ɪ s ən t ər i / DISS-ən-tər-ee, [7] US: / ˈ d ɪ s ən t ɛr i / DISS-ən-terr-ee), [8] historically known as the bloody flux, [9] is a type of gastroenteritis that results in bloody diarrhea. [1] [10] Other symptoms may include fever, abdominal pain, and a feeling of incomplete defecation. [2] [6] [11] Complications ...

  3. Flux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux

    Eight of the most common forms of flux from the transport phenomena literature are defined as follows: Momentum flux, the rate of transfer of momentum across a unit area (N·s·m −2 ·s −1). (Newton's law of viscosity) [7] Heat flux, the rate of heat flow across a unit area (J·m −2 ·s −1).

  4. Flux (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux_(metallurgy)

    Rosin used as flux for soldering A flux pen used for electronics rework Multicore solder containing flux Wire freshly coated with solder, held above molten rosin flux. In metallurgy, a flux is a chemical reducing agent, flowing agent, or purifying agent. Fluxes may have more than one function at a time.

  5. Flux (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux_(disambiguation)

    Flux (biology), movement of a substance between compartments; Flux (metabolism), the rate of turnover of molecules through a metabolic pathway; 4-Fluoroamphetamine (4-FA; PAL-303; "Flux"), a central nervous system stimulant with quasi-amphetamine effects; Dysentery, or other diseases called "flux", which cause the loss of fluid by diarrhea or ...

  6. Slag (welding) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slag_(welding)

    Examples of submerged arc weld slag. Welding slag is a form of slag, or vitreous material produced as a byproduct of some arc welding processes, most specifically shielded metal arc welding (also known as stick welding), submerged arc welding, and flux-cored arc welding.

  7. Fick's laws of diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fick's_laws_of_diffusion

    Fick's first law relates the diffusive flux to the gradient of the concentration. It postulates that the flux goes from regions of high concentration to regions of low concentration, with a magnitude that is proportional to the concentration gradient (spatial derivative), or in simplistic terms the concept that a solute will move from a region of high concentration to a region of low ...

  8. Flux method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux_method

    The flux method is a crystal growth method where starting materials are dissolved in a solvent (flux), and are precipitated out to form crystals of a desired compound. The flux lowers the melting point of the desired compound, analogous to a wet chemistry recrystallization. [1] The flux is molten in a highly stable crucible that does not react ...

  9. Continuity equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuity_equation

    A continuity equation is useful when a flux can be defined. To define flux, first there must be a quantity q which can flow or move, such as mass, energy, electric charge, momentum, number of molecules, etc. Let ρ be the volume density of this quantity, that is, the amount of q per unit volume.
