Hello everyone! Im trying to study the OpenFOAM NACA0012 airfoil steady state tutorial. The tutoril run fine an i have no problem with it, but I have an error when I try to change time stepping method to localEuler to get pseudo-transient solution. im using OpenFOAM-11 (manjaro linux)
In my terminal I get following messege:

keyword rhoFinal is undefined in dictionary "/home/vadimm/OpenFOAM_tutors/aerofoilNACA0012Steady/system/fvSolution/solvers"

my fvsolution/solvers dictionary is

solvers
{
    p
    {
        solver          GAMG;
        smoother        DIC;

        tolerance       1e-8;
        relTol          0.01;
    }

    "(U|k|omega|h)"
    {
        solver          PBiCGStab;
        preconditioner  DILU;
        tolerance       1e-10;
        relTol          0.1;
    }
}

What should i do with this error?

Extend your system/fvSolution with setting for "anyField"Final.

See any tutorial for pimpleFoam, e.g.,

tutorials/incompressible/pimpleFoam/RAS/pitzDaily

    pFinal
    {
        $p;
        relTol          0;
    }

similar for rhoFinal.

Pls. keep us posted on what your learn on localEuler.

Thank you for your reply! I check the pimpleFoam tutorials and try to replicate it in my case, but results arent very good. I upload two archive with residual plot and my fvSolution dictionary file. In my ANSYS Fluent experience pseudo transient method improve stability, but a bit slowly then usual steady state method. In OpenFOAM i didnt get such feature. May be i dont actually all openfoam pseudo-transient settings
