Class
    Foam::fv::limitVelocity

Description
    Corrects velocity field (i.e. \c T) within a specified
    region by applying a given maximum velocity magnitude limit.

    Corrections applied to:
    \verbatim
      U    | Velocity                   [m/s]
    \endverbatim

    Required fields:
    \verbatim
      U    | Velocity                   [m/s]
    \endverbatim

Usage
    Minimal example by using \c constant/fvOptions:
    \verbatim
    limitVelocity1
    {
        // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
        type            limitVelocity;

        // Mandatory entries (runtime modifiable)
        max             <maxValue>;

        // Optional entries (runtime modifiable)
        U               <Uname>;

        // Mandatory/Optional (inherited) entries
        ...
    }
    \endverbatim

    where the entries mean:
    \table
      Property  | Description                   | Type   | Reqd  | Dflt
      type      | Type name: limitVelocity      | word   | yes   | -
      max       | Maximum velocity limit [m/s]  | scalar | yes   | -
      U         | Name of operand velocity field | word  | no    | U
    \endtable

    The inherited entries are elaborated in:
      - \link fvOption.H \endlink
      - \link cellSetOption.H \endlink
      - \link writeFile.H \endlink
