N2 - Rib turbulators can enhance the heat transfer successfully, but in most cases this is associated with large pressure loss penalties. Recently, dimple techniques become an attractive method for gas turbine blade internal cooling because dimples enhance heat transfer with low pressure penalty. In the present paper, a compound heat transfer enhancement technique, heat transfer enhancement in rectangular channel (Aspect ratio = 4) with the combination of ribs, dimples and protrusions, are investigated. The calculations are conducted on five different channel configurations. Case 1 which is the baseline configuration is a rectangular channel with rectangular ribs (e/Dh=0.078, P/e=10). In case 2, one row of dimples are placed between two ribs. In case 3, instead of dimples, one row of protrusions are placed between two ribs. In case 4, three rows of dimples are place between two ribs. Case 5 places three rows of protrusions between two ribs instead of dimples. The present paper focuses on Reynolds numbers (based on the channel hydraulic diameter) ranging from 10000 to 60000. In all configurations, the non-dimensional dimple/protrusion depths are 0.2. The results show that the rib+dimple cases provide minor increase in Nu/Nu0, f/f0 and thermal performance. Within the Reynolds number range studied, the Nu/Nu0 values of the three row rib+protrusion case is 17% ∼ 7% higher than that of the baseline case, and the decrease in f/f 0 is about 10%. The thermal performance of the three row rib+protrusion case is about 16% higher than that of the baseline case. The Nu/Nu0 values of the one row rib+protrusion case is about 9% higher than that of the baseline case, and the decrease in f/f0 is about 12%. The thermal performance of the one row rib+protrusion case is about 14% higher than that of the baseline case. It can be concluded that rib+protrusion technique in rectangular channel has the potential to provide heat transfer enhancement with low pressure penalty.
