1. A wearable electronic device comprising:
a housing comprising a first plate including a first surface forming an exterior surface of the wearable electronic device;
at least one processor;
memory; and
at least two temperature sensors, including a contact-type temperature sensor and a non-contact-type temperature sensor including an IR emitter,
wherein the contact-type temperature sensor is disposed at a portion of the housing, and is configured to measure a first temperature of the portion of the housing,
wherein the non-contact-type temperature sensor is configured to emit IR light to an area of the first surface to measure a second temperature of the area, wherein the area of the first surface corresponds to the portion of the housing, and
wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor individually or collectively, cause the wearable electronic device to:
identify information on a heat flow based on the first temperature and the second temperature during a specific period, and
determine a current body temperature based at least on the information on the heat flow during the specific period.
