Class
    Foam::twoPhaseChangeModels::Kunz

Description
    Kunz cavitation model slightly modified so that the condensation term
    is switched off when the pressure is less than the saturation vapour
    pressure.  This change allows the condensation term to be formulated as
    a coefficient multiplying (p - p_sat) so that it can be included as an
    implicit term in the pressure equation.
