We present an acoustical method, based on time reversal, for simultaneous characterization of temperature and velocity profiles. The method is numerically validated in a case of free convection; the acoustic propagation is obtained from calculations of ray propagation and the convective flow is described by analytical profiles or by fields stemmed from numerical simulation. The ray theory approximation, used to solve the inverse problem, is discussed.
