A simulation investigation for simultaneous reconstruction of distributions of temperature and soot volume fraction from multi-wavelength emission in a sooting flame using the stochastic particle swarm optimizer (PSO) algorithm is presented. The self-absorption of the flame is considered. The selection of parameters of the stochastic PSO algorithm and detection wavelengths is analyzed. The effects of measurement errors and optical thickness of the flame on the accuracy of the reconstruction are investigated. It proved that the stochastic PSO algorithm is robust and can obtain accurate distributions of temperature and soot volume fraction from line-of-sight intensities in only several wavelengths, especially in the flame with large optical thickness, while other methods neglecting self-attenuation of the flame will take some errors.
