Abstract

An electronic device may include: a main body including a first surface and a second surface; a first temperature sensor and a second temperature sensor which are provided inside the main body, wherein the second temperature sensor is disposed closer to the surface of the main body than the first temperature sensor; and a processor, which while the second surface of the main body is in contact with a body part of a user, is configured to estimate a heat flux that is generated by body heat, of the user based on a difference between a first temperature measured by the first temperature sensor and a second temperature measured by the second temperature sensor, and measure air temperature based on the estimated heat flux and the second temperature.
