Class
    Foam::compressible::RASModels::alphatFilmWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField

Group
    grpSurfaceFilmBoundaryConditions grpCmpWallFunctions

Description
    This boundary condition provides a turbulent thermal diffusivity condition
    when using wall functions, for use with surface film models.  This
    condition varies from the standard wall function by taking into account any
    mass released from the film model.

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

        // Optional entries
        filmRegion      <word>;
        B               <scalar>;
        yPlusCrit       <scalar>;
        Cmu             <scalar>;
        kappa           <scalar>;
        Prt             <scalar>;

        // Inherited entries
        ...
    }
    \endverbatim

    where the entries mean:
    \table
      Property   | Description                    | Type   | Reqd  | Deflt
      type       | Type name: alphatFilmWallFunction | word | yes  | -
      filmRegion | Name of film region   | word | no | surfaceFilmProperties
      B          | Model coefficient              | scalar | no    | 5.5
      yPlusCrit  | Critical y+ for transition to turbulence | scalar | no | 11.5
      Cmu        | Empirical model coefficient    | scalar | no    | 0.09
      Prt        | Turbulent Prandtl number       | scalar | no    | 0.85
      kappa      | von Karman constant            | scalar | no    | 0.41
    \endtable

    The inherited entries are elaborated in:
