Class
    Foam::functionObjects::components

Group
    grpFieldFunctionObjects

Description
    Extracts the components of elements of a field and outputs the result
    into new fields, where the fields possess the same sizes and dimensions.

    Depending on the base type of the input field, the number of output fields
    and output suffixes are as follows (the base type cannot be scalar since
    scalars have no components):

    \table
      Base type         | Number of components | Suffixes
      vector            | 3                    | (x y z)
      sphericalTensor   | 3                    | (x y z)
      symmTensor        | 6                    | (xx xy xz yy yz zz)
      tensor            | 9                    | (xx xy xz yx yy yz zx zy zz)
    \endtable

    Operands:
    \table
      Operand       | Type                     | Location
      input         | {vol,surface}<Type>Field | <time>/inputField
      output file   | -                        | -
      output field  | {vol,surface}ScalarField | <time>/outputField
    \endtable

    where \c Type can be one of:
        \c Vector, \c SphericalTensor, \c SymmTensor, or \c Tensor.

Usage
    Minimal example by using \c system/controlDict.functions:
    \verbatim
    componentsFO
    {
        // Mandatory entries
        type            components;
        libs            (fieldFunctionObjects);

        // Inherited entries
        field           <word>;
        ...
    }
    \endverbatim

    where the entries mean:
    \table
      Property     | Description                        | Type | Reqd  | Deflt
      type         | Type name: components              | word |  yes  | -
      libs         | Library name: fieldFunctionObjects | word |  yes  | -
      field        | Name of the operand field          | word |  yes  | -
    \endtable

    The inherited entries are elaborated in:
