wallHeatFluxIncompressible

Modified to work with openFOAM v1912. Running wallHeatFluxIncompressible will calculate an approximation of the wallHeatFlux at wall patches.

Utility originally by the forum member Eelco van Vliet, for OpenFOAM 2.1.0: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/openfoam-post-processing/101972-wallheatflux-utility-incompressible-case.html#post368330

It's the one provided in the branch OF21x.

This git repository further adapts the utility for OpenFOAM 2.2.x, 2.3.x, 5 and 6, done by Bruno Santos (wyldckat@github working at FSD blueCAPE Lda).

WARNING: If you're planning on using OpenFOAM 2.2.0, then use the branch OF21x.

NOTE: In the Foundation's OpenFOAM-dev there is now a more general implementation that was introduced in the commits related to this bug report: http://www.openfoam.org/mantisbt/view.php?id=1856 - this means that the Boussinesq implementation is now part of the compressible heat transfer solvers, therefore no longer depending on explicit solvers dedicated to the Boussinesq implementation.
