Class
    Foam::wallBoilingModels::partitioningModels::linear

Description
    A linear model for wall heat flux partitioning based on
    Ioilev et al. (2007) for boiling flows.

    Reference:
    \verbatim
        Ioilev, A., Samigulin, M., Ustinenko, V.,
        Kucherova, P., Tentner, A., Lo, S., & Splawski, A. (2007).
        Advances in the modeling of cladding heat transfer
        and critical heat flux in boiling water reactor fuel assemblies.
        In Proc. 12th International Topical Meeting on Nuclear Reactor
        Thermal Hydraulics (NURETH-12).
        Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA.
    \endverbatim

Usage
    Example of the model specification:
    \verbatim
    partitioningModel
    {
        // Mandatory entries
        type            linear;
        alphaLiquid1    <scalar>;
        alphaLiquid0    <scalar>;
    }
    \endverbatim

    where the entries mean:
    \table
      Property      | Description                       | Type | Reqd | Deflt
      type          | Type name: linear                 | word | yes  | -
      alphaLiquid1  | Model parameters for threshold liquid phase fraction <!--
                    -->                               | scalar | yes  | -
      alphaLiquid0  | Model parameters for threshold liquid phase fraction <!--
                    -->                               | scalar | yes  | -
    \endtable

Note
  - Proposed threshold liquid fractions:
      - alphaLiquid1 0.1
      - alphaLiquid0 0.05
