Select LTS via the ddtScheme:

ddtSchemes
{
    default         localEuler rDeltaT;
}

The LTS algorithm is controlled with the standard settings in
controlDict, e.g.:

maxCo           0.5;
maxDeltaT       2e-8;

with the addition of the optional rDeltaT smoothing coefficient:

rDeltaTSmoothingCoeff 0.02;

which defaults to 0.02.

For cases with reasonably uniform meshes like the forwardStep tutorial
LTS does not provide much benefit but for cases with large variation in
cell-size like the biconic25-55Run35 tutorial LTS provides significant
speed-up to convergence particularly if started from uniform conditions.

Reverted changes proposed in
http://openfoam.org/mantisbt/view.php?id=1548 as it adversely affects
fixed-value BCs and is formulated to fix an issue with an unphysical
case.  Further analysis of the handling of fixed pressure outlet
conditions as the Mach number approaches 1 is required.

Use the trace as the limiter function for both symmTensor and tensor to
bound the normal stresses rather than the shear stresses.

Multi-species, mass-transfer and reaction support and multi-phase
structure provided by William Bainbridge.

Integration of the latest p-U and face-p_U algorithms with William's
multi-phase structure is not quite complete due to design
incompatibilities which needs further development.  However the
integration of the functionality is complete.

The results of the tutorials are not exactly the same for the
twoPhaseEulerFoam and reactingTwoPhaseEulerFoam solvers but are very
similar.  Further analysis in needed to ensure these differences are
physical or to resolve them; in the meantime the twoPhaseEulerFoam
solver will be maintained.

if it depends on the availability of the physical properties of both
phases as the construction of the phase-system may not be complete.
