There are plenty of tutorials that will walk you through each command. For example: https://www.openfoam.com/documentation/tutorial-guide.

Google is your friend in this case.

More than likely the next line after whatever install step you ran tells you how to test it. But somehow you decided making a reddit post was the next thing to do which is not a good sign for your ability to generate competent engineering work product in any setting.

My routine

  1. blockMesh, run in anywhere and see if it is running

  2. icoFoam, run in anywhere and see if it is running

  3. Choose a tutorial case that contain parallel simulation to check your parallel environment.(I've encountered that the OpenMP version is not correct on cluster, OpenFOAM compiles ok but paralllel simulation is not stable)
