Class
    Foam::calcFvcGrad
 
Group
    grpFVFunctionObjects
 
Description
    This function object calculates the gradient of a field.  The operation
    is limited to scalar and vector volume or surface fields, and the output
    is a volume vector or tensor field.
 
    Example of function object specification:
    \verbatim
    calcFvcGrad1
    {
        type        calcFvcGrad;
        functionObjectLibs ("libFVFunctionObjects.so");
        ...
        fieldName   U;
    }
    \endverbatim
 
    \heading Function object usage
    \table
        Property | Description                | Required  | Default value
        type     | type name: calcFvcGrad     | yes       |
        fieldName | Name of field to process  | yes       |
        resultName | Name of gradient field   | no        | fvc::grad(fieldName)
        log      | Log to standard output     | no        | yes
    \endtable
