I am working with the interDymSolver, working with the sloshing2Dtank tutorial suited to my specific problem. I already performed a simulation in laminar regime and everything worked OK. Now I need to perform the same simulation with a kEpsilon turbulence model. I found some threads on the forum providing same guidance on it, namely, H.Weller stated the next,

"interDyMFoam is setup for laminar flow. If you want to use it for turbulent flow simply transfer the turbulence model parts from either rasInterFoam for RAS or lesInterFoam for LES. "

I copied all the files on the rasInterFoam model (dambreak) and adapted them all to my case. When I started running the case the next error message came up:

I have lack of experience with the OpenFOAM programming language so after checking the fvSolution I had no many other tricks to use ... Can anyone tell me where the mistake could be?
