Abstract: Multi- physics coupling simulation of aircraft is a highly coupled and advanced nonlinear process. Traditionally, the data of professional model was collected through engineering algorithm, experience. The over- simplfied approach reduced the accuracy of the simulation result. Therefore, a simplified but effective approach according to the characteristics of each multi-physics coupling model needed to be found. Through multi- physics coupling simulation research which focused on the main contradictions and engineering requirements, ignores minor contradictions, depending on characteristics of the various couplings and application requirements, the simplified approach and conclusions were put forward and verified by examples.

Key words: multi-physics coupling, system simulation, simplified approach, hypersonic vehicle
