Class
    Foam::filmSurfaceVelocityFvPatchVectorField
 
Description
    Film surface velocity boundary condition
 
    Evaluates the surface velocity from the shear imposed by the neighbouring
    fluid velocity using either a simple drag model based on the difference
    between the fluid and film velocities multiplied by the coefficient \c Cs or
    if \c Cs is not specified or set to 0 the fluid viscous shear stress.
 
    The simple model might be used in preference to the fluid viscous shear
    stress model in order to provide some means to include the drag enhancing
    effect of surface ripples, rivulets etc. in the film surface.
 
Usage
    \table
        Property     | Description             | Required    | Default value
        Cs           | Fluid-film drag coefficient | no | 0
    \endtable
 
    Example of the boundary condition specification using the simple drag model:
    \verbatim
    <patchName>
    {
        type            filmSurfaceVelocity;
        Cs              0.005;
        value           $internalField;
    }
    \endverbatim
 
    Example of the boundary condition specification using the fluid stress:
    \verbatim
    <patchName>
    {
        type            filmSurfaceVelocity;
        value           $internalField;
    }
    \endverbatim
