Dimples play a very important role in heat transfer enhancement of electronic cooling systems. In the current paper, the fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics of spherical dimples at different angle of orientation from the centre with apex facing the inlet were investigated. The experiment was carried out for laminar Natural convection conditions with air as a working fluid. The overall Nusselt numbers and heat transfer coefficient at different orientation angle of dimples were obtained. From the obtained results, it was observed that the Nusselt numbers and heat transfer coefficient increases with decrease in the orientation angle of dimples.
