[0002] Wind tunnel tests are the most widely used, effective, mature, and perfect research method in experimental aerodynamics. Through various types of wind tunnel tests, flow parameters can be obtained, complex flow phenomena can be understood, and a highly reliable basis can be provided for establishing practical mathematical models in basic research and engineering application research. Especially large high-speed wind tunnels play an important role in the fine design of the aerodynamics / structure / propulsion integration and the aerodynamic characteristics evaluation of advanced large aircraft.

[0003] With the continuous development of aircraft, higher requirements are put forward for the simulated parameters in wind tunnel tests. It is not only required to achieve flight Mach number simulation in wind tunnel tests, but also considering that the change in flight altitude will lead to significant differences in air density, flow field structure, etc., and at the same time, it is also required to achieve flight altitude simulation in the test, in order to accurately measure the key aerodynamic characteristic parameters such as lift, drag, and heat flux of the aircraft in different airspaces such as low altitude, middle altitude, and high altitude, evaluate the stability and reliability of the aircraft in scenarios such as high maneuverability and thermal protection, and reduce the full-airspace flight test risk of the aircraft.

[0004] Currently, the existing main high-speed wind tunnels generally use empirical formulas or chart / table lookup methods to evaluate the test simulated altitude, which have disadvantages such as incomplete unity of empirical formulas and large errors in chart / table lookup methods, and lack strict theoretical support, seriously restricting the accuracy of the evaluation of the test simulated altitude in high-speed wind tunnels and having an adverse impact on the safety of the full-airspace flight test of aircraft.
