Class
    Foam::tabulatedWallFunctions::general

Description
    Computes U+ as a function of Reynolds number by inverting table of
    y+ vs U+

    Example dictionary specification:

        tabulatedWallFunction general;

        // Output table info
        tableName       uPlusWallFunctionData; // Output table name
        log10           yes;                // Re interpreted as log10(Rey)
        dx              0.2;                // Interval log10(Rey)
        x0              -3;                 // Minimum log10(Rey)
        xMax            7;                  // Maximum log10(Rey)

        generalCoeffs
        {
            interpType      linear;         // Interpolation method
            log10YPlus      true;           // y+ values defined as log10(y+)
            log10UPlus      true;           // U+ values defined as log10(y+)
            inputTable
            (
                (yPlusValue0    uPlusValue0)
                ...
                (yPlusValueN    uPlusValueN)
            );

        }
