Variable dimension heat pipe

Abstract

A heat pipe, including: a variable dimension heat pipe exoskeleton formed of a heat-conductive material by blow molding or additive manufacturing, wherein the variable dimension heat pipe exoskeleton including: a first heat pipe exoskeleton portion with a dimension having a first value; and a second heat pipe exoskeleton portion with the dimension having a second value different from the first value. Further, a method of manufacturing a heat pipe, including: providing a heat-conductive material; and performing blow molding or additive manufacturing to form a variable dimension heat pipe exoskeleton of the heat-conductive material, wherein the heat pipe exoskeleton has a first heat pipe exoskeleton portion with a dimension having a first value, and a second heat pipe exoskeleton portion with the dimension having a second value different from the first value.
