Class
    Foam::functionObjects::sizeDistribution

Description
    This function object calculates and outputs information about the size
    distribution of the dispersed phase, such as the number density function or
    its moments. It is designed to be used exclusively with the population
    balance modeling functionality of the reactingEulerFoam solvers. It can be
    applied to a specific cellZone or the entire domain.

    Example of function object specification:
    \verbatim
    box.all.numberDensity.volume.bubbles
    {
        type sizeDistribution;
        libs ("libreactingEulerFoamFunctionObjects.so");
        writeControl    outputTime;
        writeInterval   1;
        log             true;
        ...
        functionType        numberDensity;
        abszissaType        volume;
        regionType          all;
        populationBalanceModel   bubbles;
        normalize           true;
    }
    \endverbatim

Usage
    \table
        Property        | Description           | Required    | Default value
        type            | type name: sizeDistribution | yes |
        functionType    | numberDensity, volumeDensity, numberConcentration,
                          moments | yes |
        abszissaType    | volume, diameter | yes |
        momentOrder     | Write moment up to given order | no | 0
        regionType      | Evaluate for cellZone or entire mesh | yes |
        cellZoneName    | Required if regionType is cellZone |   |
        populationBalanceModel    | Respective populationBalanceModel | yes |
        normalize | Normalization | no |
