Hello All!
I'm new to OpenFoam but have done a few tutorials and now I'm trying to run my own case for the first time using sonicFoam.
My file is a rocket motor and I copied the files from the tutorial "prism" to run the turbulence portion.
I created the snappyHexMesh and when I check the mesh, everything appears to be okay.
I set up the initial conditions, boundaries, but when I finally try to run the solver, I get this:

Reading thermophysical properties

Selecting thermodynamics package
{
type hePsiThermo;
mixture pureMixture;
transport const;
thermo hConst;
equationOfState perfectGas;
specie specie;
energy sensibleInternalEnergy;
}

nothing else appears and it looks as if the file is completed but if I open the file in Paraview, the first and last step appear the same.
Not sure if its the fvSolution file that's wrong or what but I appreciate all the help!
Thank you in advance for all your time!
