How to calculate the flux through complicated Surface

How to Find the integral $int_{S} 2~dydz + 1~dzdx - (3x)~dxdy$
Where $S$ is the surface :




$x^2 + 2y^2 + 3z^2 + xyze^{(x+y+z)sin(x^2 -y+z)} = 1$



$0leq x,y,z $




i think that i must use Gauss therom. but i am not sure if the surface is closed, I though if it isn't I Shall close it with sphere with radius $~ huge epsilon$



then i simply calculate the flux through the ball and say :



$ int_{S}F_dot~vec{n} = int_{Ball+S}F_dot~vec{n} - int_{Ball}F_dot~vec{n} = 0 ~( Gauss ~law) - int_{Ball}F_dot~vec{n} $




if i cant use Gauss law what should i do ?

          Your surface is not closed. Its traces on the $OXY$, $OXZ$ and $OYZ$ planes are quarters of ellipses. You can make it closed by adding the coordinate planes. Your total flux through the closed surface is zero by Gauss' Theorem, so the flux through your surface is the opposite of the flux through the elliptical pieces of coordinate planes that you added. The latter is easily found as double integrals.

            Those elliptical intersections with the coordinate planes constitute the boundary of your surface, therefore it is not closed. A way to visualize it is the following: imagine the eight of an ellipsoid centered at the origin of coordinates (in canonical position) contained in the first octant. Your surface is a complicated surface that has the same elliptical intersections with the planes as the aforementioned ellipsoid.
