Detailed Description

A faceZone zoneGenerator which selects faces based on the intersection of a surface with the vector between the adjacent cell centres.

The returned faceZone is oriented and provides the corresponding flipMap.

Usage

Property	Description	Required	Default value
`type`	Type: face	yes
`name`	Name of the zone	no	zoneGenerator name
`surface`	searchableSurface type	yes
`tol`	cell-cell vector intersection tolerance	no	rootSmall
`moveUpdate`	Switch to update after mesh motion	no	false

To create the faceZone baffles containing the faces based on the adjacent cell centres spanning the given triangulated surface:

        baffles
        {
            type        surface;
            surface     triSurface;
            file        "baffles.obj";
        }

To create the faceZone rotatingZone containing the faces based on the adjacent cell centres spanning the given cylinder:

        rotatingZone
        {
            type        surface;
            surface     cylinder;
            point1      (0 0 0.54);
            point2      (0 0 0.66);
            radius      0.2;
        }
