Class
    Foam::compressible::thermalBaffleFvPatchScalarField

Group
    grpThermoBoundaryConditions

Description
    This boundary condition provides a coupled temperature condition between
    multiple mesh regions.

    The regions are generally referred to as the:
      - primary region,
      - and baffle region.

    The primary region creates the baffle region and evolves its energy
    equation either:
      - 1-D, normal to each patch face
      - 2-D, normal and tangential components

    The thermodynamic properties of the baffle material are specified via
    dictionary entries on the master patch.

Usage
    Example of the boundary condition specification:
    \verbatim
    <masterPatchName>
    {
        type                compressible::thermalBaffle;

        Qr                 none;// or none.Name of Qr field on localregion
        value              uniform 300;
