===== Getting started =====

Create a project directory within the ''$HOME/OpenFOAM'' directory named ''<USER>-<OpenFOAM-VERSION-YOU-USE>'' (e.g. ''chris-2.3.1'' for user chris and OpenFOAM version 2.2.2) and create a directory named ''run'' within it, e.g. by typing

<code bash>
mkdir -p "${FOAM_RUN}"
</code>

Copy the tutorial examples directory in the OpenFOAM distribution to the run directory. If the OpenFOAM environment variables are set correctly, then the following command will be correct:

<code bash>
cp -r "${FOAM_TUTORIALS}" "${FOAM_RUN}"
</code>

Run the first example case of incompressible laminar flow in a cavity:

<code bash>
cd "${FOAM_RUN}/tutorials/incompressible/icoFoam/cavity"
blockMesh
icoFoam
paraFoam
</code>
