I have got bad element quality on highly curved surfaces when creating an ICEM CFD Hexa mesh with high boundary resolution for Fluent. What can I do to improve the mesh quality?

      Set the following parameter to get a higher degree in face interpolation when generating the mesh on the highly curved surface: Settings –> Meshing Options –> Hexa Meshing –> Transfinite Degree –> Quadratic Be aware that this can produce inverted elements in bowtie-shaped blocks where linear would work fine.
