All things being equal, CFD practitioners prefer to use hexahedral mesh cells in the boundary layer for the improved robustness and accuracy they bring to the flow solver. Traditionally, a hex grid would be created using a structured grid technique (aka mapped mesh) but these can require too much manual intervention to generate efficiently. Unstructured
