I've been going through some literature on the COMSOL website regarding mesh quality. The write up mentions, "minimum mesh quality" as a good parameter to assess mesh quality. It also mentions that these parameters vary with respect to the different applications.

I'm currently working on a 3-D model that simulates microfluidic flow. I'm using an insanely fine mesh yet the minimum mesh quality is of the order e-4. I've ensured the growth-rate is limited to 1 but have the x-direction geometry scale set to 3. (the direction in which steep gradients occur)

Any ideas on which parameters might be a tell-tale sign of a good mesh for a micro-fluidic application?

Regards,

Arjun
