Magnetic flux area S is where "B" is the magnitude of the magnetic field (the magnetic flux density) having the unit of Wb/m (tesla), "S" is the area of the surface, and "θ" is the angle between the magnetic field lines and the normal (perpendicular) to S. For a varying magnetic field, we first consider the magnetic flux through an infinitesimal area element dS, where we may consider the field to be constant: A generic surface, S, can then be broken into infinitesimal elements and the total magnetic flux through the surface is then the surface integral From the definition of the
Spectral flux density is not performed mathematically after the measurement; the Lambert-cosine-weighted integration has been performed by the physical process of measurement itself. In a flat horizontal uniformly layered radiative field, the hemispheric fluxes, upwards and downwards, at a point, can be subtracted to yield what is often called the net flux. The net flux then has a value equal to the magnitude of the full spherical flux vector at that point, as described above. The radiometric description of the electromagnetic radiative field at a point in space and time is completely represented by the spectral radiance (or specific intensity) at that point.
