Dear Kamil, I am afraid a direct steady state solver is not available in 3D. We do have a linearised NS solver which runs in 2D and 2.5D but not 3D. I am cc’ing Bastien who has been working on a method call SFD which allows one to try and obtain steady state solutions using a time stepping scheme. (details can be found under http://arxiv.org/pdf/1311.7000.pdf). If you are interested Bastien could send you an example of how to run with this option. Cheers, Spencer. PS Chris/Bastien I have added the sapper to the nektar.info web page. Since we have the other paper on arxiv perhaps we could also put that one on the list as “under review”?

Ensure equation name is correct and module is compiled. I also tried other equation types (Steady Stokes, Unsteady NS etc.) What is the source of this error? I also want to ask if it is possible to write a history file for steady solutions?
