Class
    Foam::pressurePermeableAlphaInletOutletVelocityFvPatchVectorField

Group
    grpInletBoundaryConditions grpOutletBoundaryConditions

Description
    The \c pressurePermeableAlphaInletOutletVelocity is a velocity inlet-outlet
    boundary condition which can be applied to velocity boundaries for
    multiphase flows when the pressure boundary condition is specified.

    In the \c pressurePermeableAlphaInletOutletVelocity, an open condition is
    applied when \c alpha is under a user-defined \c alphaMin value and a wall
    condition is applied when \c alpha is larger than the \c alphaMin.

    This boundary condition can be used in conjunction with
    \c prghPermeableAlphaTotalPressure for the \c p_rgh variable.

Usage
    Example of the boundary condition specification:
    \verbatim
    <patchName>
    {
        // Mandatory entries
        type            pressurePermeableAlphaInletOutletVelocity;

        // Optional entries
        phi             phi;
        rho             rho;
        alpha           alpha.water;
        alphaMin        0.01;

        // Inherited entries
        value           uniform (0 0 0);
        ...
    }
    \endverbatim

    where the entries mean:
    \table
      Property     | Description             | Type | Reqd | Deflt
      phi          | Name of flux field      | word | no   | phi
      rho          | Name of density field   | word | no   | rho
      alpha        | Name of mixture field   | word | no   | none
      alphaMin     | Minimum alpha           | scalar | no | 1
    \endtable

    The inherited entries are elaborated in:
