Difficulty in starting to use OpenFOAM 4.1 Tutorials

cfd-ms · June 19, 2017, 06:15

Hello,

I am a beginner OpenFOAM user. I am trying to run the tutorials and learn the basics.
I need some help for it.

I copy this in my terminal and it doesnt's work, it says no such file or directory.
~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-4.1/run/tutorials/incompressible/icoFoam/
elbow

Should i first download something? how? what am i doing wrong?

I would be very happy if someone could help me

Thanks
