Class
    Foam::regionModels::surfaceFilmModels::thermoSingleLayer

Description
    Thermodynamic form of single-cell layer surface film model

    Note: defining enthalpy as Cp(T - Tstd) - when using liquids from the
    thermophysical library, their enthalpies are calculated similarly, where
    Tstd = 298.15K.  This is clearly non-conservative unless the heat-capacity
    is constant and should be rewritten to use the standard thermodynamics
    packages.
