The nonlinear coupled constitutive relations (NCCR) model has recently gained great success in stable numerical predictions of high-speed flows over three-dimensional complex flight configurations. However, there is an urgent demand for performing essential experimental measurements to validate the new theoretical model before further promotion to engineering applications. In this paper, the numerical simulations of the NCCR model with Jiang’s undecomposed algorithm and Navier–Stokes-Fourier (NSF) equations by in-house code are in comparison with experimental measurements to validate the applicability and accuracy of the NCCR theory in hypersonic flows. The wind tunnel experiments of HB-2 model were conducted at Ma 5 with five different angles of attack ( α = ± 4 , ± 2 , 0 \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\mathrm{\alpha }=\pm 4^\circ , \pm 2^\circ , 0$$\end{document}) in the Φ120 mm hypersonic wind tunnel. It was found that the flow field simulation results by NSF equations and the NCCR model, including aerodynamic force and shock wave structure position, are consistent with the experimental results. Most importantly, the NCCR model could completely recover the flow field solutions of NSF equations in hypersonic continuum flows. Thus, the accuracy and physical consistency of the NCCR model is critically examined and validated for hypersonic flow in continuum region.
