In this paper, domestic and foreign research present situation of high-temperature heat pipe receiver was analyzed. With Na-K alloy high temperature heat pipe receiver used as heat absorption for space solar dynamic power generation system, the mechanism of void cavity suppression and phase change coupling for Na-K alloy high temperature heat pipe receiver will be explored. The mechanism of void cavity suppression under the action of heat pipe will be revealed. And the start-up characteristics of high temperature heat pipe under the action of phase change material canister after releasing the latent heat during eclipse periods will be detailedly studied too. The phase change coupling mechanism between thermal storage canister and Na-K alloy high temperature heat pipe will be revealed. The research can offer the scientific base for the application of high temperature phase change thermal storage in aerospace.
