Class
    Foam::atmAlphatkWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField

Group
    grpAtmWallFunctions

Description
    This boundary condition provides a wall constraint on the kinematic
    turbulent thermal conductivity (i.e. \c alphat) for atmospheric boundary
    layer modelling.  It assumes a logarithmic distribution of the potential
    temperature within the first cell.

    Required fields:
    \verbatim
      alphat    | Kinematic turbulent thermal conductivity    [m2/s]
    \endverbatim

Usage
    Example of the boundary condition specification:
    \verbatim
    <patchName>
    {
        // Mandatory entries
        type            atmAlphatkWallFunction;
        Pr              <Function1<scalar>>;
        Prt             <PatchFunction1<scalar>>;
        z0              <PatchFunction1<scalar>>;

        // Optional entries
        Cmu             <scalar>;
        kappa           <scalar>;

        // Inherited entries
        ...
    }
    \endverbatim

    where the entries mean:
    \table
      Property | Description                       | Type   | Reqd     | Deflt
      type     | Type name: atmAlphatkWallFunction | word   | yes      | -
      Pr       | Molecular Prandtl number     | Function1<scalar>  | yes | -
      Prt      | Turbulent Prandtl number     | PatchFunction1<scalar> | yes | -
      z0       | Surface roughness length [m] | PatchFunction1<scalar> | yes | -
      Cmu      | Empirical model constant         | scalar | no        | 0.09
      kappa    | von Kármán constant              | scalar | no        | 0.41
    \endtable

    The inherited entries are elaborated in:

      - \link Function1.H \endlink
      - \link PatchFunction1.H \endlink
