Abstract: Aiming at the problem of robust servo performance of temperature and pressure of Flight Environment Simulation System (FESS) of Altitude ground test facilities (AGTF) over the whole operational envelope, a PI gain scheduling control design method based on Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) pole assignment is proposed. On the basis of considering the FESS modeling uncertainties caused by variable specific heat pipe volume differential equation, pipe heat conduction, control valve flow characteristics, hydraulic servo system dynamics and sensor gain, a complete and accurate nonlinear model of FESS was establised. Then, the nonlinear model is linearized around an equilibrium point and the LMI pole assignment PI gain scheduling control design method is deduced based on the linear system. Furthermore, 36 steady state points were chosen over the whole working range of FESS to design the LMI pole assignment PI gain schedule controller. Finally, two types of flight environment simulate tests are devised to verify the robust servo performance of the designed PI gain schedule controller. The simulation results show, for temperature control, the steady-state and transient errors are both less than 0.1%, for pressure control, the steady-state error is less than 0.5% and transient error is less than 0.7%.
