Class
    Foam::zoneGenerators::face
 
Description
    A zoneGenerator which converts the point, cell and face zones
    from a list of zoneGenerators into a faceZone
 
    If a faceZone with the same name as the faceZone to be generated is
    returned by a zoneGenerator in the list it is ignored.
 
    The returned faceZone is oriented and provides the corresponding flipMap.
 
Usage
    \table
        Property     | Description             | Required | Default value
        type         | Type: face              | yes      |
        name         | Name of the zone        | no       | zoneGenerator name
        cellFaces    | Cell face selection option | no    | all
        moveUpdate   | Switch to update after mesh motion | no | false
    \endtable
 
    cellFaces face selection controls:
    \table
        Option        | Description
        all           | Select all faces of the cells in the cellZone
        inner         | Select the faces inside the cellZone
        outer         | Select the faces on the outer surface of the cellZone
        outerInternal | Select the internal faces on the outer surface \\
                        of the cellZone
    \endtable
 
    To convert cellZone named \c cone1 generated by
    \verbatim
        cone1
        {
            type        truncatedCone;
            zoneType    cell;
 
            point1      (-0.0075 0 -1);
            point2      (-0.003 0.0025 1);
            radius1     0.001;
            radius2     0.0005;
        }
    \endverbatim
    into a faceZone also named \c cone1, the following zoneGenerator named \c
    cone1Faces can be used
    \verbatim
        cone1Faces
        {
            type        face;
            name        cone1;
 
            cone1;
        }
    \endverbatim
    To create a faceZone which includes only the internal mesh faces on the
    outer surface of a pre-generated cellZone named \c leftFluid the \c
    outerInternal \c cellFaces face selection option can be used:
    \verbatim
        cycLeft
        {
            type        face;
            cellFaces   outerInternal;
            leftFluid;
        }
    \endverbatim
