ca07af4e64 twoPhaseEulerFoam fluidisedBed tutorials: increase residualAlpha for phase heat transfer
to improve stability of the thermal system

3e2b64c08d MULES: nLimiterIter and smoothLimiter are now user-input via the corresponding fvSolution sub-dict
nLimiterIter: Number of iterations during limiter construction
    3 (default) is sufficient for 3D simulations with a Courant number 0.5 or so
    For larger Courant numbers larger values may be needed but this is
    only relevant for IMULES and CMULES

smoothLimiter: Coefficient to smooth the limiter to avoid "diamond"
    staggering patters seen in regions of low particle phase-fraction in
    fluidised-bed simulations.

    The default is 0 as it is not needed for all simulations.
    A value of 0.1 is appropriate for fluidised-bed simulations.
    The useful range is 0 -> 0.5.
    Values larger than 0.5 may cause excessive smearing of the solution.

3a3c29b284 blockMesh: Change default location of blockMeshDict from constant/polyMesh to system
For multi-region cases the default location of blockMeshDict is now system/<region name>

If the blockMeshDict is not found in system then the constant directory
is also checked providing backward-compatibility

0a1da8d438 twoPhaseEulerFoam: Improved handling of velocity/flux boundary conditions
Updated tutorials to converge pressure during PIMPLE loop to avoid
phase-fraction unboundedness which limits thermodynamics convergence.
