Summary0002406: wrong forceCoeffs in reactingParcelFilmFoam
DescriptionHello,

in the uploaded file I prepared a small example to demonstrate an error in the drag-coefficient calculation of the reactingParcelFilmFoam.

The example is small box in a bigger box with rain injected from above. It always calculates drag-coefficients in the order of 10^-300. So defintily wrong...
The drag/lift-directions are correct, the U=8.33m/s is nothing special. The rest of the case is based on the HotBoxes-Tutorial

Steps To Reproduceunzip, start reactingParcelFilmFoam

The outer Box is 40x20x20cm, the inner Box 10x10x3cm
