I'm trying to solve an air-conditioning problem (temperature and velocity air field) I'm trying with SimpleFoam solver.

In controlDict file what does it mean "deltaT" parameter? Is there any detailed guide/manual/description?

Thanks.

its a steady-state solver, so it returns only iteration by (endtime-starttime)/deltaT
so you can consider it one
