“…It can not only guide us to build a VFT test system, but also provide a possible method to evaluate FCSs after the test system is built. There are many literatures introducing FCS evaluation methods, such as the fully mathematical simulation evaluation methods in Magill et al, 18 Sisle, 19 Georgie and Valasek, 20 and Dadkhah and Mettler, 21 the software-in-the-loop simulation evaluation methods in Paw and Balas, 22 Prodan et al, 23 the HILS evaluation methods in Filho et al, 24 Mueller, 25 Tobbe et al, 26 Cai et al, 27 Huang and Zhang, 28 the pilot-in-the-loop simulation evaluation methods in Farris et al, 29 Swenson et al, 30 and the flight test evaluation methods in Damman, 31 Scherz and Tucker, 32 Toupet and Mettler, 33 Ninomiya et al, 34 Sakai et al 35 But there are few literatures mentioning the VFT evaluation methods. How to evaluate FCSs with VFT is still unknown.…”

In order to provide a method for evaluating flight control systems with the wind tunnel based virtual flight testing and provide a guide for building virtual flight testing systems, the virtual flight testing evaluation method was researched. The virtual flight testing evaluation method consisted of three parts: virtual flight testing method, virtual flight testing data processing method, and flight control system performance determination method, which were respectively designed for a pitching control system. Then, the hardware-in-the-loop simulation evaluation method was presented, and comparisons between the virtual flight testing and hardware-in-the-loop simulation evaluation method were conducted to highlight the characteristics of virtual flight testing evaluation method. Finally, virtual flight testing simulation models of a sample air vehicle were built and virtual flight testing were simulated to demonstrate the virtual flight testing evaluation method, which is helpful for the understanding of the virtual flight testing evaluation method with more sensibility. The evaluation results show that the virtual flight testing evaluation method designed can be used for flight control system evaluation.

Wind tunnel based Virtual Flight Testing (VFT) is a dynamic wind tunnel test for evaluating flight control systems (FCS) proposed in recent decades. It integrates aerodynamics, flight dynamics, and FCS as a whole and is a more realistic and reliable method for FCS evaluation than traditional ground evaluation methods, such as Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulation (HILS). With FCS evaluated by VFT before flight test, the risk of flight test will be further reduced. In this paper, the background, progress, and prospects of VFT are systematically summarized. Specifically, the differences among VFT, traditional dynamic wind tunnel methods, and traditional FCS evaluation methods are introduced in order to address the advantages of evaluating FCS with VFT. Secondly, the progress of VFT is reviewed in detail. Then, the test system and key technologies of VFT for FCS evaluation are analyzed. Lastly, the prospects of VFT for evaluating FCS are described.
