Monitoring the combustion in boiler furnaces is significant for the safety production and a higher production efficiency of thermal power plants. Based on ultrasonic pyrometry, an algorithm is proposed to reconstruct 3D temperature field of furnace flame in this paper. Meanwhile according to characteristics of discrete temperature points, a method for tracing isotherms and isothermal surfaces in temperature field is also designed. In Visual C++6.0 and OpenGL environment, a program is developed to reconstruct the temperature field.
