Class
    Foam::fixedNormalInletOutletVelocityFvPatchVectorField

Group
    grpInletBoundaryConditions grpOutletBoundaryConditions

Description
    This velocity inlet/outlet boundary condition combines a fixed normal
    component obtained from the "normalVelocity" patchField supplied with a
    fixed or zero-gradiented tangential component.

    The tangential component is set depending on the direction
    of the flow and the setting of "fixTangentialInflow":
    - Outflow: apply zero-gradient condition to tangential components
    - Inflow:
      - fixTangentialInflow is true
        apply value provided by the normalVelocity patchField to the
        tangential components
      - fixTangentialInflow is false
        apply zero-gradient condition to tangential components.

Usage
    \table
        Property     | Description             | Required    | Default value
        phi          | flux field name         | no          | phi
  fixTangentialInflow | If true fix the tangential component for inflow | yes |
        normalVelocity | patchField providing the normal velocity field | yes |
    \endtable

    Example of the boundary condition specification:
    \verbatim
    <patchName>
    {
        type            fixedNormalInletOutletVelocity;

        fixTangentialInflow false;
        normalVelocity

            {
                frequency 1;

                level     (0 0 0);
            }
