Abstract

A method of flatting evaporating section of a heat pipe embedded in a heat dissipation device includes the following steps: (a) providing at least a heat pipe and a base of the heat dissipation device to be thermally connected with the heat pipe, the base defining at least a groove for embedding the heat pipe therein; (b) positioning an evaporating section of the heat pipe on the groove of the base; (c) pressing the evaporating section of the heat pipe to embed the evaporating section into the groove of the base with a partial uneven surface of the evaporating section protruding out of the base; (d) flatting the protruded uneven surface of the evaporating section by polishing.
