HEAT PIPE AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME

摘要

A heat pipe includes a longitudinal casing, a main wick structure, at least one auxiliary wick structure and a working fluid contained in the casing and saturating the main wick structure and the at least one auxiliary wick structure. The main wick structure is received in the casing and attached to an inner surface of the casing. The at least one auxiliary wick structure is received in the main wick structure. An inner peripheral surface of the main wick structure and an outer peripheral surface of the at least one auxiliary wick structure cooperatively define a vapor channel therebetween. At least one end of the at least one auxiliary wick structure is fixed on a corresponding end of the casing.
