The invention relates to a method for preparing aldehyde through linear chain olefin hydroformylation. According to the method, a continuous reaction mode is used for performing olefin hydroformylation reaction in a homogeneous catalyst system; a catalyst is a composite catalysis system composed of a rhodium complex, a biphenyl backbone or biphenyl backbone diphosphine ligands and triphenylphosphine or triphenyl phosphate monophosphorous ligands; a reaction solvent comprises butyraldehyde, valeraldehyde, toluene or isodecanol; when the catalyst system uses propylene or butene-1 as raw materials under the condition of a low molar ratio of the diphosphine ligands to the rhodium complex, contents of the aldehyde generated by hydroformylation of the propylene and the butene-1 is larger than 97% and 95% respectively; and when the catalyst system uses a mixture of the butene-1 and butene-2 as raw materials, and the content of n-valeraldehyde in hydroformylation reaction products can reach above 85%.
