In the current v4-dev, the _mesh_type is a property of the Field, but we mostly need access to it in the Grid. A Field requires a UnitConverter, but may not need the mesh information directly.
Hence, we should probably clean up the code so that
- A
Grid has a _mesh_type
- The
UnitConverter of a Field is determined based on both the _mesh_type of its grid and and its name (or another way to find out if a field contains velocity or diffusion values)
