Abstract: Traditionally high-aspect ratio triangular/tetrahedral meshes are avoided by CFD researchers in the vicinity of a solid wall, as it is known to reduce the accuracy of gradient computations in those regions. Although for certain complex geometries, the use of high-aspect ratio triangular/tetrahedral elements in the vicinity of a solid wall can be replaced by quadrilateral/prismatic elements, ability to use triangular/tetrahedral elements in such regions without any degradation in accuracy can …
