The present invention provides a calibration apparatus for a scattering type cloud droplet particle detector, and belongs to the technical field of meteorology analysis. The calibration apparatus comprises a three-dimensional translation table, a glass bottle for placing standard particles, a constant gas flow pump and an optical fiber core, wherein the table surface of the three-dimensional translation table is fixedly connected with the glass bottle, the bottle opening of the glass bottle is connected with a glass bottle cover, the glass bottle cover is provided with a gas inlet pipe and a gas outlet pipe, one end of the gas inlet pipe extends into the bottom of the glass bottle, the other end of the gas inlet pipe is connected with the constant gas flow pump through a pipeline, one end of the gas outlet pipe extends into the upper portion of the glass bottle, and other end of the gas outlet pipe is fixed with the optical fiber core. The present invention further provides a calibration method for a scattering type cloud droplet particle detector. The calibration method comprises determining a center position, calculating a sensitivity area, drawing an amplitude and frequency distribution map, and drawing a cloud droplet particle detector characteristic response curve. With the present invention, problems of different speeds, internal superposition of sensitivity areas, and the like during a calibration process are avoided, it is ensured that particles pass through the sensitivity area, and use efficiency of particles is increased.
