Abstract: With the evolution of system simulation, the atmospheric environment simulation technology has developed to come into being an important key common technology, and is rapidly developed towards the larger and more complex tendency. According to the requirement of the engineering application to atmospheric environment simulation, the flow of atmospheric environment simulation application was designed. Some key questions, such as, the representation of atmospheric environment simulation, the verification and validation of environment simulation, the application interface of engineering application, atmospheric environment federation during the application process of atmospheric environment simulation were discussed. The research presents an idea about the applying of atmospheric environment simulation.

Key words: atmospheric environment simulation, engineering application, environment representation, atmospheric environment federation
