Class
    Foam::functionObjects::timeControl

Description

Note
    Since the timeIndex is used directly from Foam::Time, it is unaffected
    by user-time conversions. For example, Foam::engineTime might cause \a
    writeInterval to be degrees crank angle, but the functionObject
    execution \a interval would still be in timestep.
