Class
    Foam::fv::meanVelocityForce
 
Description
    Calculates and applies the force necessary to maintain the specified mean
    velocity.
 
    Note: Currently only handles kinematic pressure (incompressible solvers).
 
    \heading Source usage
    Example usage:
    \verbatim
    meanVelocityForceCoeffs
    {
        selectionMode   all;                    // Apply force to all cells
        fieldNames      (U);                    // Name of velocity field
        Ubar            (10.0 0 0);             // Desired mean velocity
        relaxation      0.2;                    // Optional relaxation factor
    }
    \endverbatim
