      WTM in Fluent Meshing enables users to generate good quality mesh on complex watertight geometry in a simple workflow. It is possible however that for the most complex models the surface mesh generation fails due to CAD issues or surface mesh quality. When this happens it is very useful to investigate the source of the failure with the Diagnostics Tools from the Outline View. Diagnostics Tools enable to mark different types of problems (free edges, bad skewness…) and zoom on their localisations.
