Hi, I have imported a mesh with fluentMeshToFoam. When I check the imported mesh I get:
...
--> FOAM Warning :
From function primitiveMesh::checkFaceSkewness(const bool report, labelHashSet* setPtr) const
in file meshes/primitiveMesh/primitiveMeshCheck.C at line 838
Large face skewness detected. Max skewness = 333.553 percent.
This may impair the quality of the result.
98 highly skew faces detected.
Writing 98 skew faces to set skewFaces
...

If I take a look at those faces, in paraview, they look quite good to me:


My question is: if these faces are bad, can I skip them from the computation some how, because I cannot regenerate the mesh, and they are so few?
