So increasing the Reynolds number will almost certainly require either
an increase in polynomial order or mesh resolution.  However, a bigger
problem is that your inlet velocity is now likely supersonic which will
dramatically change the dynamics of the simulation.  Specifically, at a
minimum, you will need to enable the shock capturing functionality in
PyFR in order to stabilize the simulation.

This solver is the ac- prefixed solver (with AC standing for artificial
compressibility which is the technology which underpins the
incompressible solver).  As such not only is it open source but it is
also released and available in current versions of PyFR.
