Class
    Foam::dragModels::aerosolDrag

Description
    Stokes drag with Cunningham slip correction. The slip correction coefficient
    is implemented in the following form:

    \f[
        C_c = 1 + \lambda [A_1 + A_2 \exp(-A_3 d/\lambda)]/d\,.
    \f]

    The coefficients default to the values proposed by Davis (1945). The mean
    free path is computed by

    \f[
        \lambda = \frac{kT}{\sqrt{2} \pi p \sigma^{2}}\,.
    \f]

    \vartable
        A_1       | Coefficient [-]
        A_2       | Coefficient [-]
        A_3       | Coefficient [-]
        \sigma    | Lennard-Jones parameter [m]
    \endvartable
