Class
    Foam::WLFTransport

Description
    Transport package using the Williams-Landel-Ferry model.

    Templated into a given thermodynamics package (needed for thermal
    conductivity).

    Dynamic viscosity [kg/m.s]
    \f[
        \mu = \mu_0 \exp \left(\frac{-C_1 ( T - T_r )}{C_2 + T - T_r}\right)
    \f]
