Simply, adapt the system/controlDict, system/fvSchemes and system/fvSolution to match your transient simulation requirements (you can take them from the turbFoam tutorial case if you don't have any clue).

Then, in the same directory, run "turbFoam".

That's all!

I am using OpenFOAM 1.6 and I cannot find turbFoam. Can you tell me what is the appropriate substitute for the turbFoam solver in OF 1.6?

Thanks!
