Class
    Foam::fv::VoFSolidificationMeltingSource

Description
    Solidification and melting model for VoF simulations.

    The presence of the solid phase in the flow field is incorporated into the
    model as a momentum porosity contribution; the energy associated with the
    phase change is added as an enthalpy contribution.  The solid fraction as a
    function of temperature \c alphaSolidT is specified as a Foam::Function1.

    The model writes the field \c alpha[01].solid which can be visualised to to
    show the solid distribution.

Usage
    Example usage:
    \verbatim
    VoFSolidificationMeltingSource1
    {
        type            VoFSolidificationMeltingSource;

        selectionMode   cellZone;
        cellZone        solidZone;

        alphaSolidT     table
        (
            (330 1)
            (335 0)
        );

        L               334000;
    }
    \endverbatim

    Where:
    \table
        Property     | Description             | Required    | Default value
        alphaSolidT  | Solid fraction as function of temperature | yes |
        L            | Latent heat of fusion [J/kg] | yes    |
        relax        | Relaxation coefficient [0-1] | no     | 0.9
        Cu           | Model coefficient       | no          | 100000
        q            | Model coefficient       | no          | 0.001
    \endtable
