Class
    Foam::ParticleCollector

Description
    Function object to collect the parcel mass- and mass flow rate over a
    set of polygons.  The polygons can either be specified by sets of user-
    supplied points, or in a concentric circles arrangement.  If a
    parcel is 'collected', it can be flagged to be removed from the
    domain using the removeCollected entry.

    Example usage:
    \verbatim
    particleCollector1
    {
        type            particleCollector;

        mode            concentricCircle;
        origin          (0.05 0.025 0.005);
        radius          (0.01 0.025 0.05);
        nSector         10;
        refDir          (1 0 0);
        normal          (0 0 1);

        negateParcelsOppositeNormal no;
        removeCollected no;
        surfaceFormat   vtk;
        resetOnWrite    no;
        log             yes;
    }

    particleCollector2
    {
        type            particleCollector;

        mode            polygon;

                (0 1 1)
            )
        );
        normal          (0 0 1);
