Abstract Turbulent boundary layer flow over a flat surface with a single dimple has been investigated numerically using the FLUENT CFD software package, and compared to an experiment by Ezerskii and Shekhov [1989], which studied the same configuration. The impetus for this work developed as a result of previous studies. Kithcart and Klett [1996], and Afanas’yev and Chudnovskiy [1992], showed that dimpled surfaces enhance heat transfer comparably to surfaces with protrusion roughness elements, but with a much lower drag penalty. However, the actual physical mechanisms involved in this phenomena were only partially known prior this study. Results obtained numerically are in good agreement with the experiment, most notably the confirmation of the existence of a region of enhanced heat transfer created by interaction of the flow with the dimple. In particular, the simulation indicates that heat transfer augmentation is a consequence of the development of a stagnation flow region within the dimple geometry, and the existence of coherent vortical structures which create a periodic flow-field within and immediately downstream of the dimple. This periodicity appears to govern the magnitude of the heat transfer augmentation.

An experimental research program was conducted to determine the influence of free-stream turbulence on zero pressure gradient, fully turbulent boundary layer flow. Connective heat transfer coefficients and boundary layer mean velocity and temperature profile data were obtained for a constant free-stream velocity of 30 m/s and free-stream turbulence intensities ranging from approximately 1/4 to 7 percent. Free-stream multicomponent turbulence intensity, longitudinal integral scale, and spectral distributions were obtained for the full range of turbulence levels. The test results with 1/4 percent free-stream turbulence indicate that these data were in excellent agreement with classic two-dimensional, low free-stream turbulence, turbulent boundary layer correlations. For fully turbulent boundary layer flow, both the skin friction and heat transfer were found to be substantially increased (up to ∼ 20 percent) for the higher levels of free-stream turbulence. Detailed results of the experimental study are presented in the present paper (Part I). A comprehensive analysis is provided in a companion paper (Part II).
