A method, dedicated to the fabrication of the panels having built-in heat pipe(s) and/or insert(s) (P), consists in a) providing a bottom plate (SI) comprising, in selected places on either side of the heat pipe or insert accommodation zones, tabs (L) which are substantially flat and suitable for being straightened above its upper face, b) partially straightening the tabs (L) toward the accommodation zones, c) positioning the heat pipes and/or the inserts (C1, C2) in each accommodation zone between the tabs (L) and in contact with the upper face of the bottom plate (SI), d) terminating the straightening of the tabs (L) so that they are pressed against the side faces of the heat pipes and/or inserts (Ci), e) depositing a selected thickness of a first adhesive against the side faces of the heat pipes and/or the inserts (Ci), f) positioning separating structures (N1-N3), substantially having the same height as that of the heat pipes and/or the inserts (C1, C2) on either side of the side faces of each heat pipe and/or insert and in contact with the upper face of the bottom plate (SI), and g) placing an upper plate (SS) above the heat pipes and/or inserts (C1, C2) and the separating structures (N1-N3) and in contact therewith.
