Calculating mesh quality in paraview
 
Hi all,

I am trying to determine the quality of my mesh in terms of resolution for an LES calculation. I have strict requirements on \Delta x^+, \Delta y^+, \Delta z^+ and so I would like to plot a contour plot of these values on my wall surfaces. This I can easily do if I have access to the dimensions of my cells in my mesh, since for example \Delta y^+ = \Delta yU_{\tau}/\nu and so I need to know, for each (hexahedral) cell in my mesh, what are the \Delta x, \Delta y, \Delta z values. Can this be done in paraview?
