"Összfolyadék" is a Hungarian term that translates to "total fluid" or "aggregate fluid" in English. It refers to the entirety of liquid substances within a given system or context. The specific meaning can vary depending on the field of application.

In a medical context, "összfolyadék" might refer to the total amount of fluid in the body, encompassing intracellular fluid (fluid within cells) and extracellular fluid (fluid outside cells, including blood plasma, lymph, and interstitial fluid). Monitoring and understanding total fluid levels are crucial for diagnosing and managing various health conditions, such as dehydration, edema, and heart failure.

In engineering and industrial processes, "összfolyadék" can denote the sum of all fluids involved in a particular operation or contained within a piece of equipment. This could include lubricants, coolants, fuels, or processing agents. Analyzing the total fluid volume and composition is important for efficiency, maintenance, and safety.
