Akram's looking at what he can say whilst remaining within the Forum rules for staff. 

Not sure about the adjoint bit, but I'd be surprised if you didn't have some boundary separation in the device, and that is generally unstable. Also remember that inflated meshes are just high aspect ratio cells if the flow isn't aligned (ie separation & reattachment points).
