+
+Description
+    A lduProcessorField type bypassing coupledFvPatchField and holding
+    a reference to the Field<Type>.
+
+    Used to add updateInterfaceMatrix capabilities to a lduMatrix
+    which is fully uncoupled from the fvMesh.
+
+    Its functionality is purely to init and update the processor interfaces.
