-Class
-    Foam::pressureDrop
-
-Description
-    Pressure drop porosity model, whereby the user speciefies the pressure
-    drop per unit length as a function of mass flow rate, over a fixed distance.
-
-    Example usage:
-    \verbatim
-    pressureDropCoeffs
-    {
-        coordinateSystem
-        {
-            e1  (1 0 0);
-            e2  (0 1 0);
-        }
-
-        lRef    0.5;
-
-        mDotvsDp table
-        (
-            (0   0)
-            (0.2 20)
-            (0.4 40)
-            (0.6 65)
-            (0.8 95)
-            (1.0 125)
-            (1.5 220)
-            (2.0 320)
-            (2.5 435)
-            (3.0 560)
-            (3.5 700)
-        );
-    }
-    \endverbatim
-
-Note
-    The mDotvsDp entry is a DataEntry type, able to describe the pressure drop
-    per unit length as a function mass flow rate.  The example above gives the
-    usage for supplying in-line tabulated data.
