Class
    Foam::interfaceCompression

Description
    Interface compression corrected scheme, based on counter-gradient
    transport, to maintain sharp interfaces during VoF simulations.

    The interface compression is applied to the face interpolated field from a
    suitable 2nd-order shape-preserving NVD or TVD scheme, e.g.  vanLeer or
    vanAlbada.  A coefficient is supplied to control the degree of compression,
    with a value of 1 suitable for most VoF cases to ensure interface integrity.
    A value larger than 1 can be used but the additional compression can bias
    the interface to follow the mesh more closely while a value smaller than 1
    can lead to interface smearing.

    Example:
    \verbatim
    divSchemes
    {
        .
        .
        div(phi,alpha)     Gauss interfaceCompression vanLeer 1;
        .
        .
    }
    \endverbatim
