Default Airfoil edge sizing mesh generation problem

Hello everyone,

I am trying to create a mesh so i can solve the case "flow around an airfoil" using Ansys. I already created the geometry and divided it in 6 faces. Then for the mesh i used edge sizing (see Mesh_sizing.png).

All the edges going towards the airfoil have :
Number of divisions = 50
Behavior = Hard
Bias type = (depends the line)
Bias option = Bias Factor
Bias Factor = 150
The rest faces are divided the same way but with no bias.
I also use Mapped Face Meshing with Method = quadrilaterals

However when generating the mesh it is like the edge sizing is not being considered as a parameter. The result i get when i generate the mesh is (see Wrong_mesh.png). The boundary of the mesh as seen (see Zoom.png) is divided how i want but the lines are not connected with the dots. What i would expect is something like this (right_mesh.png).

Does anyone know how to fix this ?
Thank you in advance
