Hi Foamers
How could I download OpenFOAM 1.5 dev?
I can't find any versions of OpenFOAM1.5 in openfoam.org site.
Best

It's odd that some versions are not available anymore,isn't it?

Quick answers:

1. "OpenFOAM 1.5-dev" is actually a fork of OpenFOAM 1.5.x. Said fork was not developed by OpenCFD nor the OpenFOAM Foundation, which is why it isn't mentioned in openfoam.org. The 1.5-dev fork is part of the foam-extend project. For more details about 1.5-dev, see: https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/C...ersion_1.5-dev
2. I have not tried building "OpenFOAM(-Extend) 1.5-dev" in several years now, because last time I tried, there were too many problems to deal with and building 1.6-ext was a lot easier, for which you can find installation instructions: https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/I...enFOAM-1.6-ext
3. OpenFOAM 1.5 and 1.5.x that was released by OpenCFD is now rather old and is not maintained. There references available to it nowadays are almost only provided as an historic reference. Although you should still find installation instructions available for more recent Linux Distributions here: https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Installation
