Class
    Foam::functionObjects::phaseScalarTransport

Description
    Evolves a passive scalar transport equation within one phase of a
    multiphase simulation. The scalar is considered to be a phase-intensive
    property; i.e., its value represents an amount per-unit of the phase. In
    addition to the scalar, the function also writes out the product of the
    volume fraction and the scalar, as this provides a phase-extensive field
    which is often more convenient to post-process.

    Most entries are the same as for the \c scalarTransport function. Refer to
    its documentation for details. Entries specific to this function are
    detailed below. Note that the phase-name will be determined by stripping
    the extension from the supplied field name.

    If the solver does not provide an \c alphaPhi flux, or that flux is for
    some reason unreliable, then the \c solveAlphaPhi switch can be used to
    make this function solve a pressure-like equation from which \c alphaPhi is
    recovered.
