Research on flows over time has been conducted mainly in two separate and mainly independent approaches, namely \emph{discrete} and \emph{continuous} models, depending on whether a discrete or continuous representation of time is used. Recently, Borel flows have been introduced to build a bridge between these two models.
In this paper, we consider the maximum Borel flow problem formulated in a network where capacities on arcs are given as Borel measures and storage might be allowed at the nodes of the network. This problem is formulated as a linear program in a space of measures. We define a dual problem and prove a strong duality result. We show that strong duality is closely related to a MaxFlow-MinCut Theorem.
