Morphology
The meaning is directly derived from combining 'flow' (movement or sequence) with 'chart' (a visual display): it is simply a chart that shows a flow or sequence of steps. This noun–noun compound follows a common, compositional pattern and has clear parallels in other languages, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents would readily infer the meaning.
Etymology
Flow chart comes from the image of a river or liquid flow moving along paths on a chart. So, because the picture looks like things moving from one step to the next, a flow chart means a picture that shows the order of steps or 'decisions' in a process.
