Dear PyFR developers,

I am writing my master thesis using pyfr to simulate the flow over a 
turbine cascade similar to T106c test case used in "F. D. Witherden and A. 
Jameson Impact of Number Representation for High-Order Implicit Large-Eddy 
Simulations" paper. However I have some questions about the setup and an 
error I am facing at:

1.       The Error “Minimum sized time step rejected”, does it mean, that 
the simulation diverges?  Sometimes the simulation goes on, when I just 
restart the simulation from the last solution, however sometimes I get the 
error at one specific time. I also tried to limit the time step using 
dt-max, but it did not work. If I turn off the PI controller, I get NaN 
values instead. I should mention that I have relatively fine mesh 
(comparing with your T106c test case). Do you have any suggestions, how I 
can prevent this error?

2.       Do I need to use anti-ailiasing just for Polynomial orders higher 
than 2? Did you use it for the T106c case at P2 and Re=80000?

3.       In my understanding the reference Reynolds number is not defined 
in pyfr in case of non-dimensionalaizing, therefore we have to eliminate it 
by choosing a specific reference dynamic viscosity, namely Mu_t0 = rho_t0 * 
a_t0 * Lc (Mu_t0 : Reference dynamic viscosity, rho_t0 : Reference density, 
Lc : Reference Lenght). So that the reference Reynolds-number would be 1. 
Is that correct?


Regards,

Amir Matin
