Hello Saeed,
It is probable that the diffusion profile is due to the low element quality, but without seeing the file you an't say for sure. In some cases low element quality does not affect the solution.
Please post the .mph file after clearing the mesh and solution if you would like Discussion Forum to chime in further (or contact COMSOL Support if you cannot post your file here).
Best,
Jeff
