Class
    Foam::VF::voxel
 
Description
    Ray search engine based on discretising space into uniform voxels
 
    Voxels are refined using 2x2x2 refinement.
 
    The number of rays per face is supplied by the user, whereby rays are
    issued uniformly across a hemisphere.
 
Usage
    Minimal example by using \c <constant>/viewFactorsDict:
    \verbatim
    // Mandatory entries
    nRayPerFace        <label>;
 
    // Optional entries
    nTriPerVoxelMax     <label>;
    depthMax            <label>;
 
    // Inherited entries
    ...
    \endverbatim
 
    where the entries mean:
    \table
      Property    | Description                       | Type | Reqd | Deflt
      nRayPerFace | Number of rays issued per face    | label | yes | -
      nRayPerFace | Target number of triangles per voxel | label | no | 50
      depthMax    | Maximum voxel refinement depth    | label | no  | 5
    \endtable
 
    The inherited entries are elaborated in:
