Hi,
I have installed foam-extend-3.0 in OpenFOAM/foam-extend-3.0
directory bu fallowing the instructions given in the
LINK : http://wikki.gridcore.se/foam-extend/download#compile
Later created a directory RUN in OpenFOAM/foam-extemd-3.0 and copied all the tutorials to this RUN directory and tried to run but I am not able to run tutorials .

What might be the problem, ???
Please help me

Regards..

Greetings Sangamesh,

Well, without being able to see what you are seeing, it's very hard to diagnose what the problem might be.

I suggest that you run the following commands, one line at a time, and let us know what do you get from the output of each command:

mkdir -p $FOAM_RUN 
cp -r $FOAM_TUTORIALS $FOAM_RUN 
cd $FOAM_RUN/tutorials/incompressible/icoFoam/cavity 
blockMesh 
icoFoam 
paraFoam

And make sure that you run the commands identically to the lines above, otherwise it will very likely not work as intended.

Best regards,
Bruno

Hi ,

I copied the tutorials in $Home/OpenFOAM/foam-extend-3.0/run
But The path suggested by you has worked out.

Now my question is which solver need to choose for radial flow turbine which is rotating at 160000 rpm ?

Quick answer: I have no idea. But have a look into the wiki pages by the Special Interest Group for Turbomachinery: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Sig_Turbomachinery

Beyond that, I suggest that you ask in the correct sub-forum
edit: Oh, I see now that you already did http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...lesrffoam.html
