Hello I m new to both linux and openfoam so I have few doubts in running the simulation.

For my simulation I need some supporting libraries to be installed but I m not sure about the procedure.

So my directory contrains 0 constant and system subdirectories. So if ihave to instal my libraries which directory should I have do install so my simulation runs???

Greetings pooja_m21 and welcome to the forum!

OpenFOAM is a toolbox, which usually means one should install it completely, in order to use it. For that, follow the usual installation instructions: http://www.openfoam.org/download/ - or check this thread: Frequently Asked Questions about Installing OpenFOAM

Once OpenFOAM is installed, read/study the OpenFOAM User Guide and do the tutorials: http://www.openfoam.org/docs/user/

Best regards,Bruno
