I have a H function which describe the location of the same temperature. I can draw the function with ContourPlot. But the real value of the temperature needed to be calculated separately. I need to plot the temperature on the Contour. How should I assign the value to the ContourPlot?

ContourLabels displaying any quantity you wish can be created with an option of the sort, ContourLabels -> (Text[Framed[#3^2], {#1, #2}, Background -> White] &). In this case, it creates labels displaying the square of the contour value, but #3^2 can be replaced by any desired expression involving #3, the value of the plotted function. For instance, the ContourPlot produced by 

ContourPlot[Sin[x - y], {x, 0, Pi}, {y, 0, Pi}, 
 ContourLabels -> (Text[Framed[#3^2], {#1, #2}, Background -> White] &)]
