Class
    Foam::sampledInterface
 
Description
    A sampledSurface that calculates the PLIC interface in VoF simulations
    Only works in combination with isoAdvector and a reconstruction scheme
 
    This is often embedded as part of a sampled surfaces function object.
 
Usage
    Example of function object partial specification:
    \verbatim
    surfaces
    {
        freeSurf
        {
            type            interface;
            interpolate     false;
        }
    }
    \endverbatim
 
    Where the sub-entries comprise:
    \table
        Property | Description                             | Required | Default
        type     | interface                               | yes      |
    \endtable
