The furnace temperature of coal-fired boilers in power plants is an important operating parameter for boiler flame monitoring and control, which directly affects the combustion efficiency and the safety of boilers. Based on the research status at home and abroad and the previous research foundation, this paper studies and designs the temperature measurement system of acoustics method. The principle of temperature measurement by sound method is discussed in this paper, and the generalized cross correlation (GCC) method for measuring flight time of sound waves is introduced. The software and hardware of the temperature measurement system are designed in detail. The experiment is carried out according to the measured data of power plant and the results show that the system can measure the average temperature of acoustic paths in the furnace. The feasibility of the system is verified. And this study provides a basis for the reconstruction of furnace temperature field.

Today, the most serious threat to global health is the continuous outbreak of respiratory diseases, which is called Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). The outbreak of COVID-19 has brought severe challenges to public health and has attracted great attention from the research and medical communities. Most patients infected with COVID-19 will have fever. Therefore, the monitoring of body temperature has become one of the most important basis for pandemic prevention and testing. Among them, the measurement of body temperature is the most direct through the Forehead Thermometer, but the measurement speed is relatively slow. The cost of fast-checking body temperature measurement equipment, such as infrared body temperature detection and face recognition temperature machine, is too high, and it is difficult to build Disease Surveillance System (DSS). To solve the above-mentioned problems, the Intelligent pandemic prevention Temperature Measurement System (ITMS) and Pandemic Prevention situation Analysis System (PPAS) are proposed in this study. ITMS is used to detect body temperature. However, PPAS uses big data analysis techniques to prevent pandemics. In this study, the campus field is used as an example, in which ITMS and PPAS are used. In the research, Proof of Concept (PoC), Proof of Service (PoS), and Proof of Business (PoB) were carried out for the use of ITMS and PPAS in the campus area. From the verification, it can be seen that ITMS and PPAS can be successfully used in campus fields and are widely recognized by users. Through the verification of this research, it can be determined that ITMS and PPAS are indeed feasible and capable of dissemination. The ITMS and PPAS are expected to give full play to their functions during the spread of pandemics. All in all, the results of this research will provide a wide range of applied thinking for people who are committed to the development of science and technology.

Temperature is one of the most widely measured parameters in a power plant. Temperature is monitored and also used for control in some areas. The paper covers some of the basics of Temperature measurement, and leads into some of the technical advances that impart higher a degree of safety and reliability to power plant operation. These advances are based on some of the latest and innovative technologies that are being implemented in process instrumentation. Irrespective of the type of power plant (coal-fired, Oil or gas based), temperature measurement remains high on the list for operational excellence throughout the plant. Implementation of some of the new technologies results in improved Safety and lower installation and maintenance costs. Incorrect measurement information due to temperature effects, non linearity or stability can result in major equipment getting damaged. Ensuring instruments that have minimal downtime from a maintenance standpoint, not just devices that have been evaluated to provide Safety Integrity Level service in Safety Instrumented Systems, is crucial for daily operations in a power plant.
