Hi

I am doing a turbine simulation and I am using inflation layer around the blade walls

First layer thickness
first layer height 1.5e-2 mm
Maximum layers of 30
Growth rate of 1.5

When I use this way I am getting bad element quality around the blades. Everytime if I check the element quality the bad one is around the inflation layer. So can someone tell me why this issue is always there ? Kindly let me know.
The skewness is less than 0.6 overall. I dont know what I could do to improve in this mesh.. Image is attached.
