1. Heat exchange device (2, 40, 50, 56, 60, 68, 69, 70, 76, 77, 78, 88, 90) for effecting a heat exchange between a heat transfer fluid of a first network (26) of capillary heat pipes (25, 27) and a heat transfer fluid of a second network (36) of capillary heat pipes (35, 37), the heat exchange device comprising a solid block (4) provided with at least a first channel (20) and a second channel (30) independent of the first channel (20), each channel (20, 30) having a capillary internal structure (18), the first channel (20) having at least one opening (22, 52) intended to be connected to a capillary heat pipe (25) of the first network (26), the second channel (30) having at least one opening (32, 54) intended to be connected to a capillary heat pipe (35) of the second network (36), the first channel (20) having a portion (28, 80) which lies near a portion (38, 82) of the second channel such that, when the heat exchange device (2, 40, 50, 56, 60, 68, 69, 70, 76, 77, 78, 88, 90) is connected to the first network (26) and to the second network (36), the heat transfer fluid of the first network (26) is able to exchange heat with the heat transfer fluid of the second network (36) via said heat exchanging portions (28, 38, 80, 82).
