The heat transfer characteristics in a rectangular micro-channel with dimples/protrusions were numerically studied to solve the problem of high flux heat removal of MEMS. The height and the width of the micro-channel were 200 μm and 50 μm
respectively. The Reynolds number ranged from 100 to 900
and the stream wise pitch was 1.5-3.5 times the dimple diameter. The influences of aligned or staggered arrangement of dimples/protrusions on the heat transfer and flow characteristics were also investigated. The results show that the normalized Nusselt number(Nu/Nu
0
)in the micro-channel with dimples/protrusions ranges from 1.28 to 4.77
almost the same as that in conventional channels. The normalized Fanning friction f
actor(f/f
0
)is in the range from 1.11 to 2.04
whose upper limit and lower limit are the same as that and smaller than that in conventional channels with dimples/protrusions
respectively. Both Nu/Nu
0
and f/f
0
values increase approximately linearly with an increase in Reynolds numbered. At the same Reynolds number
both Nu/Nu
0
and f/f
0
values for the staggered arrangement are greater than those for the aligned arrangement. Both Nu/Nu
0
and f/f
0
values increase with the decrease in the stream wise pitch at the same arrangement of dimples/protrusions. The thermal performance for the staggered arrangement is higher than that for the aligned arrangement. These findings confirm that the energy saving for micro-channels with dimples/protrusions is greater than that for conventional channels with dimples/protrusions.
