Thanks dear nima for your fast reply
In fact there is not any tutorial folder in this version and I do not know how I can run Allmake and create test case too?
Are there any tutorial?

Greetings to all!

@e.ahmadiyan: It all depends on the Ubuntu version you have got.

For Ubuntu 10.04, you can install from Deb packages, but it'll be a very old version of OpenFOAM 1.6-ext.
As for all other versions of Ubuntu, you have to build from source code.

Either way, check this page for instructions: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/In...1.6-ext/Ubuntu

Note: I'm currently testing the instructions for Ubuntu 13.04, so it'll take a while until it's verified if the instructions work on 13.04.
edit: testing is complete. The instructions should work on Ubuntu 13.04.

Best regards,
Bruno
