Description
In this tutorial we parallelize a tutorial case. We use the built-in
OpenFOAM MPI implementation and invoke a few built-in tools to help with setup
and post-processing.

Outline
-Make and convert mesh.
-Go over decomposeParDict file.
-Decompose domain.
-Run simulation in parallel.
-Reconstruct output for viewing.

Commands
gmsh mesh/mesh.geo -3 -o test.msh
gmshToFoam test.msh -case case
Modify boundary file:
-frontAndBack as empty
-wing as wall
-tunnel as wall
decomposePar
mpirun -np 4 simpleFoam -parallel
reconstructPar -latestTime
