Class
    Foam::functionObjects::wallBoundedStreamLine

Group
    grpFieldFunctionObjects

Description
    Generates streamline data by sampling a set of user-specified fields along a
    particle track, transported by a user-specified velocity field, constrained
    to a patch.

Usage
    Example of function object specification:
    \verbatim
    wallBoundedStreamLine1
    {
        type            wallBoundedStreamLine;
        libs            ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");

        writeControl    writeTime;

        setFormat       vtk;
        U               UNear;
        trackForward    yes;

        fields
        (
            UNear
            p
        );

        lifeTime        10000;
        trackLength     1e-3;
        bounds          (0.2 -10 -10)(0.22 10 10);
        cloudName       particleTracks;

        seedSampleSet
        {
            type        patchSeed;
            patches     (wall);
            axis        x;
            maxPoints   20000;
        }
    }
    \endverbatim

    Where the entries comprise:
    \table
        Property     | Description             | Required    | Default value
        type         | Type name: wallBoundedStreamLine| yes |
        setFormat    | Output data type        | yes         |
        U            | Tracking velocity field name | yes    |
        fields       | Fields to sample        | yes         |
        lifetime     | Maximum number of particle tracking steps | yes |
        trackLength  | Tracking segment length | no          |
        nSubCycle    | Number of tracking steps per cell | no|
        cloudName    | Cloud name to use       | yes         |
        bounds       | Bounding box to trim tracks | no | invertedBox
        seedSampleSet| Seeding method (see below)| yes       |
    \endtable

    Where \c seedSampleSet \c type is typically one of
    \plaintable
        uniform   | uniform particle seeding
        cloud     | cloud of points
        patchSeed | seeding via patch faces
        triSurfaceMeshPointSet | points according to a tri-surface mesh
    \endplaintable

Note
    When specifying the track resolution, the \c trackLength OR \c nSubCycle
    option should be used
