Class
    Foam::resolutionIndexModels::CelikNuIndex

Description
    Computes a single-mesh resolution index according to Celik et al.'s index
    using effective viscosity, which is used as a LES/DES quality/post
    verification metric that does not require any experimental or DNS data.

    \f[
        \Gamma_{Celik,\nu}(\mathbf{x}, t) =
            \frac{1}{1 + \alpha_\nu \left(\frac{\nu_{eff}}{\nu}\right)^n}
    \f]

    with

    \f[
        \nu_{eff} = \nu_{num} + \nu_{sgs} + \nu
    \f]

    \f[
        \nu_{num} = {sgn}(k_{num}) C_\nu \Delta \sqrt{k_{num}}
    \f]

    \f[
        k_{num} = C_n \left(\frac{h}{\Delta}\right)^2 k_{sgs}
    \f]

    where
    \vartable
        \Gamma_{Celik,\nu}(\mathbf{x}, t) | Celik et al.'s index    [-]
        \alpha_\nu | Empirical constant                             [-]

        \nu_{sgs}  | Subgrid-scale eddy viscosity                   [m^2/s]
        \nu        | Kinematic viscosity of fluid                   [m^2/s]

        C_\nu      | Empirical constant                             [-]
        \Delta     | Filter length scale                            [m]
        C_n        | Empirical constant                             [-]
        h          | Characteristic length scale with \f$h = V^{1/3} \f$ [m]
        V          | Cell volume                                    [m^3]
        k_{sgs}    | Subgrid-scale turbulent kinetic energy         [m^2/s^2]
    \endvartable

    Criterion for acceptable-quality resolution:

    \f[
        \Gamma_{Celik,\nu}(\mathbf{x}) \geq 0.8
    \f]

    Required fields:
    \verbatim
      k        | Subgrid scale turbulent kinetic energy [m^2/s^2]
      delta    | Filter length                          [m]
      nu       | Kinematic viscosity                    [m^2/s]
      nut      | Subgrid-scale eddy viscosity           [m^2/s]
