convertToSingleFluid
Converts variables written as a two-fluid into a single fluid. The single fluid use variables
\((\rho,\rho\,u_{x},\rho\,u_{y},\rho\,u_{z},\rho_{c},j_{x},j_{y},j_{z},e_{0},e_{1})\) which is converted from
the individual fluids \((\rho_{0},\rho_{0}\,u_{x\,0},\rho_{0}\,u_{y\,0},\rho_{0}\,u_{z\,0},e_{0})\) and
\((\rho_{1},\rho_{1}\,u_{x\,1},\rho_{1}\,u_{y\,1},\rho_{1}\,u_{z\,1},e_{1})\).
The exact conversion is
\[\notag
\rho=\rho_{0}+\rho_{1}\]
\[\notag
m_{x}=\rho_{0}m_{x\,0}+\rho_{1}m_{x\,1}\]
\[\notag
m_{y}=\rho_{0}m_{y\,0}+\rho_{1}m_{y\,1}\]
\[\notag
m_{z}=\rho_{0}m_{z\,0}+\rho_{1}m_{z\,1}\]
\[\notag
\rho_{c}=\frac{q_{0}}{m_{0}}\rho_{0}+\frac{q_{1}}{m_{1}}\rho_{1}\]
\[\notag
j_{x}=\frac{q_{0}}{m_{0}}\rho_{0}u_{x\,0}+\frac{q_{1}}{m_{1}}\rho_{1}u_{x\,1}\]
\[\notag
j_{y}=\frac{q_{0}}{m_{0}}\rho_{0}u_{y\,0}+\frac{q_{1}}{m_{1}}\rho_{1}u_{y\,1}\]
\[\notag
j_{z}=\frac{q_{0}}{m_{0}}\rho_{0}u_{z\,0}+\frac{q_{1}}{m_{1}}\rho_{1}u_{z\,1}\]
where \(m_{0}\) is the mass of the first species, \(m_{1}\) is the mass of the second species
\(m_{x\,\alpha}=u_{x\,\alpha}\rho_{\alpha}\), \(m_{y\,\alpha}=u_{y\,\alpha}\rho_{\alpha}\),
\(m_{z\,\alpha}=u_{z\,\alpha}\rho_{\alpha}\) is the momentum density in the x,y, or z directions of the
\(\alpha\) species and \(q_{\alpha}\) is the charge of the \(\alpha\) species.
