The signals of flame spontaneous emission (passive method) and absorption spectrum (active method) are two commonly used optical measurement methods for reconstructing the combustion physical field. Developing an active and passive combined method by combining the respective advantages of the two methods will provide a new means for combustion detection. By introducing a laser absorption optical path into the passive measurement system to simultaneously obtain the spontaneous emission and absorption spectral signals of the flame, the combustion temperature field and the initial component concentration field reconstructed by the passive method are introduced into the active method reconstruction. The active and passive combined method is developed by combining the double regularization constraints of smoothness and the prior concentration physical field. Simulation reconstructions are carried out for typical single-peak and double-peak axisymmetric flame sections. When the measurement error is 1.00%, the average errors of the single-peak and double-peak flame combustion temperature field reconstructions are 0.92% and 1.32% respectively, and the average errors of water vapor volume fraction are 3.05% and 3.31% respectively. The results show that under the double regularization constraints, the reconstruction accuracy of water vapor concentration by the active and passive combined method is significantly improved compared with the passive method, and the number of required laser optical paths is greatly reduced compared with that of the active method, achieving accurate measurement of the combustion temperature field and component concentration field using a simple measurement system.
