We consider the baryon number generation by charge transport mechanism in the electroweak phase transition taking properly into account thermal fluxes through the wall separating true and false vacuum in the spatial space. We show that the diffusion from the true vacuum to the false one has a large diminishing effect on the baryon number unless the wall velocity is near to, but less than, the speed of sound in the medium and the ratio between the collision rate and wall thickness is about 0.3. The maximum net baryon density generated is $\rho_B/s\simeq 0.2\times 10^{-10}$, where $s$ is the entropy density of the Universe. If the wall proceeds as a detonation, no baryon number is produced.
