hi
I am trying to simpleFoam on an Airfoil design but I keep getting the following error , please help !!

I have also changed the patchField type to nutUSpaldingWallFunction as it is done in the tutorial but I also got this error message

please help
I am doing now this tutorial for my graduation project:
http://www.tfd.chalmers.se/~hani/kur...ort_task_3.pdf


and I have this case file so far :

Well, the patch boundary doesn't exist, and you have not defined the discretization scheme for the deviatoric velocity gradient tensor. The error uotput it's pretty self-explanatory

Looks like you are using a case from a newer version of OpenFOAM and running it with an older. Look inside system/fvSchemes and you'll see that div((nuEff*dev(T(grad(U))))) is not defined, but something very similar looking likely is.
