Abstract
A temperature estimation apparatus includes: a first temperature sensor that measures first temperature of first part of a target that has a heat source; a second temperature sensor that measures second temperature of second part that is farther from the heat source than the first part; and a processor. The processor obtains temperature-for-estimation data regarding the first and second temperatures that are measured in a state where a predetermined condition is satisfied, the predetermined condition corresponding to a certain state of change in the temperature of the heat source. Based on the obtained temperature-for-estimation data, the processor obtains a single thermal resistance parameter in a thermal model. Based on the obtained thermal resistance parameter and the measured first and second temperatures, the processor estimates the temperature of the heat source as a deep-body temperature of the target.
