NFX-T: 1005 Simple Two Phase Gearbox

Set up a simple two phase gearbox for drive train oiling simulation using SimLab for CFD-nanoFluidX solution.

To capture the forces and torque measurements, refer to NFX-T: 1020 ParaView Rendering and NFX-T: 1030 ParaView Post-processing In-plane Streamlines and Vectors.
