snappyHexMesh - layers in 3d pipe bifurcation

Hallo.

I'm trying to mesh a three-dimensional pipe bifurcation for internal flow simulations using
snappyHexMesh. Problems occure concerning the additional boundary layers close to the
"stagnation point" , see the pictures. I want the layers to enclose the sharp edge or to
merge and go farther inwards the flow field.

Has anyone an idea/suggestion how to do that?
Thanks in advance for any response!

Daniel
