Hello everyone,
I am quite new to cfd and presently trying to learn openfoam. While running the porousSimpleFoam solver for angledDuct tutorial problem, an error crops up as this:

Create time

Create mesh for time = 0


SIMPLE: no convergence criteria found. Calculations will run for 100 steps.

Reading field p

Reading field U



--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
Please supply either 'volumetricFlowRate' or 'massFlowRate' and 'rho'

FOAM exiting


Please help resolve the problem.
Also please suggest a way to modify the case for a flow through a pipe with porous medium in between.
Thanks in advance.
