Class
    Foam::mappedFieldFvPatchField

Group
    grpGenericBoundaryConditions grpCoupledBoundaryConditions

Description
    This boundary condition provides a self-contained version of the \c mapped
    condition.  It does not use information on the patch; instead it holds
    thr data locally.

    \heading Patch usage

    \table
        Property     | Description             | Required    | Default value
        fieldName    | name of field to be mapped | no       | this field name
        setAverage   | flag to activate setting of average value | yes |
        average      | average value to apply if \c setAverage = yes | yes |
    \endtable

    Example of the boundary condition specification:
    \verbatim
    myPatch
    {
        type            mappedField;
        fieldName       T;              // optional field name
        setAverage      no;             // apply an average value
        average         0;              // average to apply if setAverage
        value           uniform 0;      // place holder
    }
    \endverbatim

Note
    Since this condition can be applied on a per-field and per-patch basis,
    it is possible to duplicate the mapping information.  If possible, employ
    the \c mapped condition in preference to avoid this situation, and only
    employ this condition if it is not possible to change the underlying
    geometric (poly) patch type to \c mapped.
