The detection performance of infrared imaging systems during high-speed flight is significantly impacted by aero-optical and aero-thermal radiation effects. However, traditional numerical calculations struggle to balance accuracy and efficiency, and there is a lack of a comprehensive model for infrared imaging in an aerodynamic thermal environment. In this study, we propose a calculation method based on Cellular Automata (CA) ray tracing, which allows for parallel calculation of aero-optical and aero-thermal radiation effects by combining optical field transport rules with the cellular space obtained by interpolation under fluid-solid boundary constraints. Using this method, we extend the traditional imaging feature prediction model of the infrared imaging system to obtain an accurate characterization model of the full-chain imaging features adapted to the aerodynamic thermal environment. Finally, we investigate the characteristics of infrared multispectral imaging system in various spectral bands under the influence of aero-optical and aero-thermal radiation effects. With this full-chain imaging model, the key elements of the imaging system under aerodynamic thermal environment can be globally optimized.
