Class
    Foam::fv::clouds
 
Description
    This fvModel adds any number of Lagrangian clouds to any single-phase
    solver. The particles are tracked through, and exchange sources with, the
    Eulerian flow field.
 
    As well as the fvModel controls, properties must be specified for each
    cloud. For a single cloud, these should be provided in the
    constant/cloudProperties file. For multiple clouds, the list of cloud names
    must first be provided in the constant/clouds file. Then, each named cloud
    has its properties specified in its constant/<cloudName>Properties file.
 
    The application of sources to the Eulerian fields is controlled by the
    solution/coupled switch in each cloud's properties file. If set to "true"
    then the Eulerian phase will have forces, and heat and mass sources applied
    to it by the Lagrangian phase. If set to "false" then these will be omitted,
    and the Lagrangian phase will not affect the Eulerian phase.
 
    If this model is used with an incompressible solver, then the density of
    the Eulerian phase must be specified in the constant/physicalProperties
    dictionary.
 
    Gravity will be read from the constant/g file if present, otherwise it will
    default to zero.
 
Usage
    Example usage:
    \verbatim
    clouds
    {
        libs        ("liblagrangianParcel.so");
        type        clouds;
    }
    \endverbatim
 
    \table
        Property | Description                     | Required   | Default value
