Class
    Foam::functionObjects::fieldValues::surfaceFieldValue

Group
    grpFieldFunctionObjects

Description
    A \c face regionType variant of the \c fieldValues function object.

    Given a list of user-specified fields and a selection of mesh (or general
    surface) faces, a number of operations can be performed, such as sums,
    averages and integrations.

    For example, to calculate the volumetric or mass flux across a patch,
    apply the \c sum operator to the flux field (typically \c phi).

Usage
    A minimal example:
    \verbatim
    surfaceFieldValuePatch1
    {
        // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
        type            surfaceFieldValue;
        libs            (fieldFunctionObjects);

        // Mandatory entries (runtime modifiable)
        fields          (<field1> <field2> ... <fieldN>);
        operation       <operationType>;
        regionType      patch;
        name            <patch>;

        // Optional entries (runtime modifiable)
        names           (<patch-name> <patch-regex>);

        postOperation   none;
        weightField     alpha1;
        scaleFactor     1.0;
        writeArea       false;
        surfaceFormat   none;

        // Optional (inherited) entries
        ...
    }

    surfaceFieldValueFaceZone1
    {
        // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
        type            surfaceFieldValue;
        libs            (fieldFunctionObjects);

        // Mandatory entries (runtime modifiable)
        fields          (<field1> <field2> ... <fieldN>);
        operation       <operationType>;
        regionType      faceZone;
        name            <faceZone>;

        // Optional entries (runtime modifiable)
        names           (<zone-name> <zone-regex>);

        postOperation   none;
        weightFields    (rho U);
        scaleFactor     1.0;
        writeArea       false;
        surfaceFormat   none;
        empty-surface   warn;  // default | warn | ignore | strict

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

    The inherited entries are elaborated in:

      absWeightedAreaIntegrate | area integral using absolute weighting
      absWeightedUniformity    | uniformity index using absolute weighting
    \endplaintable

    Options for the \c postOperation entry:
    \plaintable
       none          | No additional operation after calculation
       mag           | Component-wise \c mag() after normal operation
       sqrt          | Component-wise \c sqrt() after normal operation
    \endplaintable

    Usage by the \c postProcess utility is not available.

Note
    - Some types (eg, patch or faceZone) support the selection of multiple
      entries, which can be specified as list of words or regular expressions
      by \b names entry.<br>
      If the \b names enty exists \em and contains a literal that can be used
      as a suitable value for \b name, the \b name entry becomes optional
      instead of being mandatory.
    - The values reported by the \c areaNormalAverage and \c areaNormalIntegrate
      operations are written as the first component of a field with the same
      rank as the input field.
    - Faces on empty patches are ignored.
    - Using \c functionObjectSurface:
      - The keyword %subRegion should not be used to select surfaces.
        Instead specify the regionType 'functionObjectSurface' and provide
        the name.
    - Using \c sampledSurface:
        - surface fields only supported by some surfaces
        - default uses sampleScheme \c cell
        - each face in \c sampledSurface is logically only in one cell
          so sampling will be wrong when they are larger than cells.
          This can only happen for sampling on a \c triSurfaceMesh
        - take care when using isoSurfaces - these might have duplicate
          triangles and so integration might be wrong

    Uniformity:
    \f[
        UI(\phi) = 1 - \frac{1}{2 \overline{\phi} A}
        \int{\left| W \phi \cdot \hat{n} - \bar{W} \bar{\phi}\right| d\vec{A}}
        \,,\;
        \bar{\phi} = \frac{\int{W \phi \cdot d\vec{A}}}{\int{W \cdot d\vec{A}}}
    \f]

    A velocity uniformity index is calculated with no weighting (W=1) and
    \f$ \phi = \vec{U} \f$.

    A scalar concentration uniformity index is calculated with either
    \f$ \rho \vec U \f$ or \f$ \vec U \f$ for weighting and
    \f$ \phi = conc \f$.
