after the XXXFoam command, just run 'foamToVTK' then a folder named 'VTK' will be created you can use paraview to load geometry VTK and lagrangian VTK, and check the results.

Hi Samuele,
OpenFOAM hates spaces in folder names. In this case, the folder name "My world" is invalid for OpenFOAM to use. Best regards, Bruno
