Some boundary value problems yield anisotropic solutions, e.g. solutions with boundary layers. If such problems are to be solved with the finite element method (FEM), anisotropically refined meshes can be advantageous. In order to construct these meshes or to control the error one aims at reliable error estimators. For isotropic meshes such estimators are known but they fail when applied to anisotropic meshes. Rectangular (or cuboidal) anisotropic meshes were already investigated. In this paper an error estimator is presented for tetrahedral or triangular meshes which offer a much greater geometrical flexibility.
