Refresh and flush time reference in the cluster or in the node or in the index or in the other?

I know ES execute refresh every second at the default configuration.
I know ES execute flush every 30 minutes or trigger by translog at the
default configuration.
But I do not know who give the time reference and it is what level in the
ES framework?
