Mesh metric data

Hello,
a quick question about this metric data.

+--------------------------------------------------------------+
| Mesh Quality Metric| Minimum| Maximum|
+--------------------------------------------------------------+
| Orthogonality Angle (deg.)| 60.3835| 89.8552|
| CV Face Area Aspect Ratio| 1.29375| 689.973|
| CV Sub-Volume Ratio| 1.02479| 4.24807e+08|
+--------------------------------------------------------------+

What exactly is CV Sub-Volume Ratio and how is it defined?
Regards
Giovanni

/*--- Volume ratio is computed by looping over all volume elements and
computing the sub-element volume contributions. The ratio between the
largest and smallest sub-elements making up the dual CV is a
measure of the volume stretching ratio for the cell. Smaller
is better (closer to isotropic). ----*/
