Class
    Foam::fanPressureFvPatchScalarField

Description
    This boundary condition can be applied to assign either a pressure inlet
    or outlet total pressure condition for a fan.

Usage
    \table
        Property     | Description             | Required    | Default value
        fanCurve     | fan curve file name     | yes         |
        p0           | environmental total pressure | yes    |
    \endtable

    Example of the boundary condition specification:
    \verbatim
    inlet
    {
        type            fanPressure;
        fanCurve        tableFile;
        tableFileCoeffs
        {
            file            "$FOAM_CASE/constant/pressureVsQ";
            format          csv;
            nHeaderLine     1;
            refColumn       0;
            componentColumns 1(1);
            separator       ",";
            mergeSeparators no;
            outOfBounds     clamp;
            interpolationScheme linear;
        }
        direction       in;
        p0              uniform 0;
        value           uniform 0;
    }

    outlet
    {
        type            fanPressure;
        fanCurve        tableFile;
        tableFileCoeffs
        {
            file            "$FOAM_CASE/constant/pressureVsQ";
            format          csv;
            nHeaderLine     1;
            refColumn       0;
            componentColumns 1(1);
            separator       ",";
            mergeSeparators no;
            outOfBounds     clamp;
            interpolationScheme linear;
        }
        direction       out;
        p0              uniform 0;
        value           uniform 0;
    }
    \endverbatim

    The above example shows the use of a comma separated (CSV) file to specify
    the condition.
