make prefactor in Ranz-Marshall correlation customizable

Browse Source 
For a single sphere the data of Ranz suggests
2 + 0.6 * Re^(1/2) * Pr^(1/3)
but for gas flow through a packed bed of particles this may change to
2 + 1.8 * Re^(1/2) * Pr^(1/3)
cf. Kunii and Levenspiel, Fluidization Engineering (1991)
Hence, this commit will make this prefactor configurable in the
couplingProperties dict; if it is not set, use a value of 0.6 to retain
previous behavior;
Also, use the specialized math functions for square root and cube root
instead of the pow function;
