Class
    Foam::fv::CrankNicolsonDdtScheme

Description
    Second-oder Crank-Nicolson implicit ddt using the current and
    previous time-step fields as well as the previous time-step ddt.

    The Crank-Nicolson scheme is often unstable for complex flows in complex
    geometries and it is necessary to "off-centre" the scheme to stabilise it
    while retaining greater temporal accuracy than the first-order
    Euler-implicit scheme.  Off-centering is specified via the mandatory
    coefficient \c ocCoeff in the range [0,1] following the scheme name e.g.
    \verbatim
    ddtSchemes
    {
        default         CrankNicolson 0.9;
    }
    \endverbatim
    or with an optional "ramp" function to transition from the Euler scheme to
    Crank-Nicolson over a initial period to avoid start-up problems, e.g.
    \verbatim
    ddtSchemes
    {
        default         CrankNicolson
        ocCoeff
        {
            type scale;
            scale linearRamp;
            duration 0.01;
            value 0.9;
        };
    }
    \endverbatim
    With a coefficient of 1 the scheme is fully centred and second-order,
    with a coefficient of 0 the scheme is equivalent to Euler-implicit.
    A coefficient of 0.9 has been found to be suitable for a range of cases for
    which higher-order accuracy in time is needed and provides similar accuracy
    and stability to the backward scheme.  However, the backward scheme has
    been found to be more robust and provides formal second-order accuracy in
    time.

    The advantage of the Crank-Nicolson scheme over backward is that only the
    new and old-time values are needed, the additional terms relating to the
    fluxes and sources are evaluated at the mid-point of the time-step which
    provides the opportunity to limit the fluxes in such a way as to ensure
    boundedness while maintaining greater accuracy in time compared to the
    Euler-implicit scheme.  This approach is now used with MULES in the
    interFoam family of solvers.  Boundedness cannot be guaranteed with the
    backward scheme.

Note
    The Crank-Nicolson coefficient for the implicit part of the RHS is related
    to the off-centering coefficient by
    \verbatim
        cnCoeff = 1.0/(1.0 + ocCoeff);
    \endverbatim
