TEMPERATURE CONTROL APPARATUS, TEMPERATURE CONTROL METHOD, GAS SENSOR, METHOD OF MANUFACTURING GAS SENSOR, AND TEMPERATURE CONTROL SYSTEM FOR GAS SENSOR

摘要

A gas sensor including a detection element section (71) including a solid electrolyte body and a pair of electrodes disposed on the solid electrolyte body, and a heater (73) for heating the detection element section (71). Inherent characteristic information is recorded in a record section (170) provided on the gas sensor or a record section provided separately from the gas sensor. The inherent characteristic information is information specific to the detection element section (71) and which allows setting of a relation between a change in the temperature of the detection element section (71) and a change in the internal resistance between the pair of electrodes.
