Description
    The k-epsilon-phit-f turbulence closure model for incompressible and
    compressible flows.

    The model is a three-transport-equation linear-eddy-viscosity turbulence
    closure model alongside an elliptic relaxation equation.

    \heading Input fields
    \plaintable
        k         | Turbulent kinetic energy [m2/s2]
        epsilon   | Turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate [m2/s3]
        phit      | Normalised wall-normal fluctuating velocity scale [-]
        f         | Elliptic relaxation factor [1/s]
    \endplaintable

    The default model coefficients are (LUU:Eqs. 19-20):
    \verbatim
        kEpsilonPhitFCoeffs
        {
            includeNu   true;    // include nu in (LUU: Eq. 17), see Notes
            Cmu         0.22;    // Turbulent viscosity constant
            Ceps1a      1.4;     // Model constant for epsilon
            Ceps1b      1.0;     // Model constant for epsilon
            Ceps1c      0.05;    // Model constant for epsilon
            Ceps2       1.9;     // Model constant for epsilon
            Cf1         1.4;     // Model constant for f
            Cf2         0.3;     // Model constant for f
            CL          0.25;    // Model constant for L
            Ceta        110.0;   // Model constant for L
            CT          6.0;     // Model constant for T
            sigmaK      1.0;     // Turbulent Prandtl number for k
            sigmaEps    1.3;     // Turbulent Prandtl number for epsilon
            sigmaPhit   1.0;     // Turbulent Prandtl number for phit = sigmaK
        }
    \endverbatim

Note
    The name of the original variable replacing 'v2' is 'phi' (LUU:Eq. 14).
    However, the name 'phi' preexisted in OpenFOAM; therefore, this name was
    replaced by 'phit' herein.

    Including \c nu in \c DphitEff even though it is not present in (LUU:Eq. 17)
    provided higher level of resemblance to benchmarks for the tests considered,
    particularly for the peak skin friction (yet, pressure-related predictions
    were unaffected). Users can switch off \c nu in \c DphitEff by using
    \c includeNu entry in \c kEpsilonPhitFCoeffs as shown above in order to
    follow the reference paper thereat. \c includeNu is left \c true by default.
    See GitLab issue #1560.
