| Summary: | In this paper, aimed at the problem of large temperature gradient thermal testing with the typical sharp wedge leading edge structure of a hypersonic vehicle, a subsonic high-temperature combustion gas heating (SHCH) test device is used to conduct a series of experiments on the heat flux simulation ability of subsonic high-temperature combustion gas in the stagnation point region. Firstly, for a hypersonic vehicle with a flying height of 24 km and Mach number range of 4~6.5, the stagnation point heat flux in the head area is obtained by numerical calculation of a typical leading edge structure, which is used as the experimental target of the thermal structure test. Secondly, an experimental specimen with a Gardon heat flux meter is designed with the same shape and size as the specimen in the numerical simulations to prepare for the subsequent SHCH test. Thirdly, a method to determine the combustion gas temperature based on a Kriging surrogate model is proposed. CFD numerical simulation is conducted using the SHCH test model, and the numerical calculation results are used as the training dataset. The Kriging surrogate model is used to establish an approximate fitting relationship between the stagnation point heat flux and experimental parameters under SHCH conditions. The corresponding combustion gas temperature values are found, respectively, with the hypersonic aerodynamic heat flux at Mach 5.0~5.4 as the target value. Finally, stagnation point heat flux testing of low-speed and high-temperature combustion gas is performed at different combustion gas temperatures. The experimental and target values obtained from hypersonic aerodynamic thermal simulations are compared and analyzed to verify the heating capacity of SHCH and the feasibility of hypersonic aerothermal simulation testing.
