Simulation results reveal that for a given density, the thermal conductivity of dual–size foams is higher than that of uniform cell size foam. However, the effective thermal con- ductivity decreases while increasing the cell radius ratio r/R in dual–size foams. A multi–objective optimum design model considering structure strength, heat insulation and light mass requirement is developed, where the objective function is obtained through polynomial fitting of the numerical results. The model is solved by the constraint method and the optimum cell radius ratio, density and thickness of metal foam are obtained for dual–size metal foams. A comparison of the heat insulation capacity of the dual–size metal foam to the single–size metal foam having the same mass and yield st
