[case] RelativePermeabilityGeneralizedPower

A generalized power law for the relative permeability

Definition:

\[ k_{\text{rel}} = \text{multiplier} {S_{\text{eff}}}^{\text{exponent}}\]

where \(S_{\text{eff}}\) is the effective saturation of liquid phase.

This class handles the wetting (liquid) phase portion of this relative permeability property.

This property must be a medium property, it computes the permeability reduction due to saturation as function of capillary pressure.
