Rapid high-precision non-linear calibration for temperature sensors in transient aerodynamic heating simulation systems

In order to accurately simulate the transient aerodynamic heating conditions experienced by aircraft when flying at high speeds, rapid and highly precise non-linear dynamic control of the heating process in aerodynamic simulation experiments must be conducted using a transient heat flux control system. This process involves carrying out 'thermoelectric potential - temperature (E-T)' conversion of sensors. Here a fast and high-precision 'E-T' sensor conversion method for the transient aerodynamic heating control systems of high-speed aircraft is proposed. The developed method has the advantages of easy calculation, rapid conversion speed and high calibration precision, and can thus be employed for fast non-linear dynamic control of rapidly-changing temperature fields in the aerodynamic heating process of high-speed aircraft.
