Class
    Foam::zoneGenerators::patch
 
Description
    A zoneGenerator which constructs a faceZone from a set of patches
 
    The returned faceZone is oriented and provides the corresponding flipMap.
 
Usage
    \table
        Property     | Description             | Required | Default value
        type         | Type: patch             | yes      |
        name         | Name of the zone        | no       | zoneGenerator name
        patch        | Name of patch           | no       |
        patches      | List of patch names     | no       | ()
        moveUpdate   | Switch to update after mesh motion | no | false
    \endtable
 
    To convert patch named \c freeSurface into a faceZone of the same name:
    \verbatim
        freeSurface
        {
            type        patch;
            patch       freeSurface;
