If F is a well defined vector field and divF=0 then does that mean the flux of F across any surface in 3D would also be 0?

I know that in divergence theorem, divF=0 automatically implies that the integral will be 0 but what about across flat surfaces and planes?

across any closed surface, yes

otherwise, no :wink:
