I checked the code and compared it with rhoPsonic foam. but the step where the max courant no is computed has a variable phiV that is incompatible with simpleFoam. I would really like to run simpleFoam with adjustTimeStep. Regards, prasad.

Think of time for simpleFoam as an "iteration counter". Adjusting the time-step wouldn't change anything __________________ Note: I don't use "Friend"-feature on this forum out of principle. Ah.
