Class
    Foam::clouds::kinematicParticle
 
Description
    Cloud with spherical, constant density, particles.
 
    The carrier interaction is characterised by a cloud/carrier density ratio.
    Neither the cloud nor the carrier needs the absolute value of the density
    to be defined. The carrier must therefore also have constant density.
