The phrase ''flume'' is only used to describe the water channel in an [[waterwheel#Overshot Wheel|overshot waterwheel]]. For [[waterwheel#Undershot Wheel|undershot]] or [[waterwheel#Breastshot Wheel|breastshot waterwheels]] where no man made channel is necessary to direct water onto the wheel, the flume tends to be called the '''[[mill race]]'''.

Other special names for a flume include a leat, lade, or goit.
