The invention provides a turbulent boundary layer flow field velocity measurement method based on boundary tracing and belongs to the field of fluid computing. The method is used for acquiring velocity vector distribution of turbulent boundary layer fluid with hydrogen bubbles being tracing particles under a single-phase condition. The method comprises the steps that a hydrogen bubble image is acquired through a special experimental facility, the obtained experimental image is subjected to image input processing, processing through a histogram equalization algorithm, image feature extraction processing, FCM cluster partitioning processing, boundary recognition and tracking processing, local velocity distribution processing, velocity maximum value extraction processing, setting of an optimal detection window of a fast Fourier transformation cross-correlation algorithm, processing through the fast Fourier transformation cross-correlation algorithm, velocity vector distribution processingand other processing processes in sequence, and finally the velocity vector distribution is obtained. The method is simple, easy to implement, high in application value, high in operability and convenient to realize; and quantitative analysis is performed on a large-scale structure existing in a turbulent boundary layer, and the blank of quantitative research about a turbulent boundary layer quasi-order structure with the hydrogen bubbles being the tracing particles is filled up.
