Abstract Staggered arrays of dimples imprinted on opposite surfaces of an internal flow channel have been formulated numerically to enhance turbulent heat transfer compromising with pressure drop. The channel is simulated with the help of three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) analysis. Three non-dimensional design variables based on dimple size and channel dimensions and two objectives related to heat transfer and pressure drag have been considered for shape optimization. A weighted-sum method for multi-objective optimization is applied to integrate multiple objectives into a single objective and polynomial response surface approximation (RSA) coupling with a gradient based search algorithm has been implemented as optimization technique. By the present effort, heat transfer rate is increased much higher than pressure drop and the thermal performance also has shown improvement for the optimum design as compared to the reference one. The optimum design produces lower channel height, wider dimple spacing, and deeper dimple as compared to the reference one.
