Class
    Foam::externalCoupledMixedFvPatchField

Group
    grpGenericBoundaryConditions grpCoupledBoundaryConditions

Description
    Extends the mixed boundary condition with serialisation functions.

    The serialisation functions:

    - writeHeader
    - writeData
    - readData

    It is used for coupling to external applications in combination
    with the externalCoupled functionObject. The default output is one
    line per face, with columns
    \verbatim
        <value> <snGrad> <refValue> <refGrad> <valueFraction>
    \endverbatim

Note
    readData, writeData are not callbacks for regIOobject (since fvPatchField
    not derived from it). They do however do exactly the same - streaming of
    data.
