"constant/boundaryRegion" is an IOMap<dictionary> that contains the boundary type and names. eg,

        (
            0
            {
                BoundaryType    wall;
                Label           Default_Boundary_Region;
            }

            1
            {
                BoundaryType    inlet;
                Label           inlet_1;
            }

            ...

            4
            {
                BoundaryType    pressure;
                Label           outlet;
            }
        )
