Class
    Foam::semiPermeableBaffleMassFractionFvPatchScalarField

Description
    This is a mass-fraction boundary condition for a semi-permeable baffle.

    This condition models a baffle which is permeable to a some species and
    impermeable to others. It must be used in conjunction with a
    specieTransferVelocityFvPatchVectorField velocity condition, and a
    specieTransferTemperatureFvPatchScalarField  temperature condition.

    The mass flux of a species is calculated as a coefficient multiplied by the
    difference in a property across the baffle.
        \f[
            \phi_{Yi} = c A (\psi_i - \psi_{i,n})
        \f]
        where
        \vartable
            \phi_{Yi}  | Flux of the permeable specie [kg/s]
            c          | Transfer coefficient [kg/m^2/s/<property-dimensions>]
            A          | Patch face area [m^2]
            \psi_i     | Property on the patch [<property-dimensions>]
            \psi_{i,n} | Property on the neighbour patch [<property-dimensions>]
        \endvartable

    A species that the baffle is permeable to will, therefore, have a
    coefficient greater than zero, whilst a species that does not transfer will
    have a coefficient equal to zero.

Usage
    \table
        Property | Description                | Req'd? | Default
        c        | Transfer coefficient       | no     | 0
        property | Property used to drive the transfer; massFraction, \\
        moleFraction, molarConcentration, or partialPressure | if c is \\
        non-zero |
        phi      | Name of the flux field     | no     | phi
        U        | Name of the velocity field | no     | U
    \endtable

    Example of the boundary condition specification:
    \verbatim
    <patchName>
    {
        type            semiPermeableBaffleMassFraction;
        property        molarConcentration;
        c               1e-3;
        value           $internalField;
    }
    \endverbatim
