A heat transfer augmented channel wall includes a bulk portion, a wall surface and a plurality of multi-portion indented features extending from the wall surface into the bulk portion. The multi-portion indented features include a first indented portion and a second indented portion that are divided
A heat transfer augmented channel wall includes a bulk portion, a wall surface and a plurality of multi-portion indented features extending from the wall surface into the bulk portion. The multi-portion indented features include a first indented portion and a second indented portion that are divided by a ridge which disrupts fluid flow between first and second indented portions. The ridge has a height that is less than a maximum depth of the multi-portion indented features.

1. A turbine engine, comprising: a compressor for pressurizing air to generate compressed air;a combustion chamber for mixing said compressed air with fuel and combusting for generating a stream of hot combustion gases;a turbine section for extracting energy from said stream of hot combustion gases;
1. A turbine engine, comprising: a compressor for pressurizing air to generate compressed air;a combustion chamber for mixing said compressed air with fuel and combusting for generating a stream of hot combustion gases;a turbine section for extracting energy from said stream of hot combustion gases;a plurality of channel walls including a heat transfer augmented channel wall exposed to a flow path of said stream of hot combustion gases in at least one of said combustion chamber and said turbine section, said heat transfer augmented channel wall comprising:a bulk portion;a wall surface, anda plurality of multi-portion indented features arranged in a two-dimensional (2D) array that is periodic in both dimensions of said 2D and is in a staggered row configuration extending from said wall surface into said bulk portion,wherein said multi-portion indented features each comprise: a first indented portion, andat least a second indented portion,wherein said first indented portion and said second indented portion are divided by a ridge which disrupts fluid flow between said first and second indented portions, andwherein said ridge has a height that is less than a depth of said multi-portion indented features. 2. The turbine engine of claim 1, wherein said first indented portion comprises a first rim wherein said first rim comprises a first intersection of said first indented portion and said wall surface, said first rim having a first circular profile comprising a first radius and a first midpoint, andwherein said second indented portion comprises a second rim wherein said second rim comprises a second intersection of said second indented portion and said wall surface, said second rim has a second circular profile comprising a second radius and a second midpoint, said first midpoint and said second midpoint comprising a distance apart less than a sum of said first radius and said second radius, said distance apart being greater than zero. 3. The turbine engine of claim 1, wherein said plurality of multi-portion indented features are positioned after said combustion chamber in a flow direction of said hot combustion gases. 4. The turbine engine of claim 1, wherein said first and second indented portions both have a semispherical shape. 5. The turbine engine of claim 1, wherein said height of said ridge is from twenty to eighty percent of said depth, and wherein said ridge extends across the full width of said multi-portion indented features. 6. The turbine engine of claim 1, wherein a length dimension of said plurality of multi-portion indented features is aligned at 0 degrees to a flow direction of said stream of hot combustion gases. 7. The turbine engine of claim 1, wherein said multi-portion indented features are double dimples. 8. The turbine engine of claim 1, wherein a length dimension of said plurality of multi-portion indented features is aligned from 0 to 30 degrees relative to a flow direction of said stream of hot combustion gases. 9. A method of increasing heat transfer, comprising: providing at least one heat transfer augmented channel wall within an apparatus that utilizes a hot fluid flow during operation, said channel wall comprising:a bulk portion;a wall surface, anda plurality of multi-portion indented features arranged in a two dimensional (2D) array that is periodic in both dimensions of said 2D and is in a staggered row configuration extending from said wall surface into said bulk portion,wherein said multi-portion indented features each comprise: a first indented portion, andat least a second indented portion, wherein said first indented portion and said second indented portion are divided by a ridge which disrupts fluid flow between said first and second indented portions, andwherein said ridge has a height that is less than a depth of said multi-portion indented features, andflowing a hot gas over said channel wall during operation of said apparatus. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein said apparatus comprises a turbine engine and said channel wall is within a combustor or turbine section of said turbine engine. 11. The method of claim 9, wherein a length dimension of said plurality of multi-portion indented features is aligned parallel to a flow direction of said hot fluid flow. 12. The method of claim 9, wherein said first and second indented portions both have a semispherical shape, and said plurality of multi-portion indented features are arranged in a periodic two-dimensional (2D) array. 13. The method of claim 9, wherein said height of said ridge is from twenty to eighty percent of said maximum depth, and wherein said ridge extends across the full width of said multi-portion indented features. 14. A heat transfer augmented channel wall, comprising: a bulk portion;a wall surface, anda plurality of multi-portion indented features extending from said wall surface into said bulk portion, wherein said multi-portion indented features each comprise:a first indented portion, andat least a second indented portion, wherein said first indented portion and said second indented portion are divided by a ridge which disrupts fluid flow between said first and second indented portions, andwherein said ridge has a height that is less than a depth of said multi-portion indented features, wherein said plurality of multi-portion indented features arranged in a two-dimensional (2D) array that is periodic in both dimensions of said 2D and is in a staggered row configuration. 15. The channel wall of claim 14, wherein said multi-portion indented features are double dimples.
