I’m trying to simulate an aerofoil based on experimental data with flow in the following conditions:

Mach=0.84

Reynolds number (Re) = 3*10^6

I wanted to keep my chord length at 1unit but then what would I use as my free stream flow velocity in my pressure far field boundary condition? Does the Reynolds number even matter here?

Would it be correct to say that the Re doesn’t matter here as I know M=0.8?

If I know both Re number and Mach, how do I incorporate both into my simulation?
