An improved two-color method, which originates from an approximate emissivity ratio model based on the empirical emissivity formula by Hottel and Broughton, was developed to measure the temperature field of soot flames generated on a McKenna burner in the present study. In conjunction with the onion-peeling method and Tikhonov regularization, the reconstructed temperature fields of rich soot flames under varied equivalence ratios were obtained by calculating the 550 and 650 nm spontaneous emission signal images, which were recorded by an intensified charge coupled device, respectively. At the same time, an autoscanning R-type thermocouple was used to measure flame temperature for validating the reconstructed data. The results show that the reconstructed temperature distributions agreed well with the measured data by thermocouple, and the reconstructed temperature is more precise by the present improved two-color method than by the classic two-color method based on a constant emissivity assumption.
