Class
    Foam::heatTransferModels::Prandtl
 
Description
    This simple model creates a heat transfer coefficient in proportion with
    the corresponding drag model's momentum transfer coefficient. A
    user-defined Prandtl number and a harmonic average of the phases'
    specific heats are used to specify the constant of proportionality.
 
    This model has no physical basis. It exists primarily for testing
    purposes. It has the advantage of being applicable to any interface,
    including those representing segregated configurations.
 
    Example usage:
    \verbatim
    heatTransfer
    {
        gas_segregatedWith_liquid
        {
            type            Prandtl;
            Pr              0.7;
        }
    }
    \endverbatim
