Take the normal vector to point outward from the box. The divergence theorem changes the closed-surface flux into a volume integral. The divergence is
The first term integrates to zero in , since . Therefore
Hence
A direct face check gives zero from the two faces, from the pair of faces, and from the pair of faces. This also checks the outward-orientation signs.
