Class
    Foam::heatTransferModels::timeScaleFiltered

Description
    A time scale filtering wrapper around an underlying heat transfer model
    intended for simulations involving dispersed phase with a very small
    diameter. The model limits the heat transfer coefficient based on the
    relaxation time given.
