Default Negative Volume in Mesh by Gridgen

Dear All,

I was wondering if any one can help me with a little problem I am here. I have generated a 2D mesh using Gridgen and when I examine the blocks, it shows negative volumes. I dont know how to fix it and the elliptical solver here doesn't seem to help either.

I have read the file in Fluent 2D and it produces reversed flow since it has got negative volumes!

If any one can suggest a way on how to fix the mesh and which attributes to set while smoothing for positive volume then it would be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks in advance.

James

P.S. I dont want to remesh since the mesh I have generated is very complicated!
