Class
    Foam::saturationModels::polynomial

Description
    Polynomial equation for the saturation vapour temperature in terms of
    the vapour pressure (in Pa).

    \f[
        T_sat = \sum_i C_i p^i
    \f]

    where \f$p\f$ is the pressure in Pa and \f$C\f$ are the coefficients.

    Currently this class only provides \f$T_sat\f$, the inverse function to
    return the vapour pressure for a given temperature are not implemented.
