highly skewed elements in grid

ryan · November 30, 2009, 14:56

I was trying to mesh a face with around a 2d airfoil.But after meshing the face it shows that i have 18 highly skewed elements.How do i remove them.

I am also facing the same problem. Anybody here to help?

I have found a way. However, I don't know whether it is right way or not! Just go to Grid->Polyhedra->Convert Skewed Cells. I found it in the UG of fluent.

there is always a reason for skewed cells.
Try to found this reason (small edge, small angle etc...)
If you don't see any geometrical reason, then try to "play" with mesh parameters (size function etc....)
