Class
    Foam::compressible::alphatWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField
 
Description
    This boundary condition provides a turbulent thermal diffusivity condition
    when using wall functions
    - replicates OpenFOAM v1.5 (and earlier) behaviour
 
    The turbulent thermal diffusivity calculated using:
 
        \f[
            \alpha_t = \frac{\mu_t}{Pr_t}
        \f]
 
    where
 
    \vartable
        \alpha_t| turbulence thermal diffusivity
        \mu_t   | turbulence viscosity
        Pr_t    | turblent Prandtl number
    \endvartable
 
Usage
    \table
        Property     | Description             | Required    | Default value
        nut          | turbulence viscosity field name | no  | nut
        Prt          | turbulent Prandtl number | no          | 0.85
    \endtable
 
    Example of the boundary condition specification:
    \verbatim
    <patchName>
    {
        type            alphatWallFunction;
        nut             nut;
        Prt             0.85;
        value           uniform 0; // optional value entry
    }
    \endverbatim
