Abstract: The invention relates to a device for measuring the temperature of a gas, especially air, said temperature (so-called effective temperature) being measured at least according to speed (wind intensity) and humidity. The inventive device comprises a housing (4) having a wall (6), which essentially separates the inside (4c) of the housing (4) from the outside environment. The device also comprises a temperature sensor (14) arranged inside the housing (4), and has a heating device (10), which is also arranged inside, said housing (4). The invention is characterized in that the outer side of the wall (6) of the housing (4) is essentially covered with a hydrophilic layer (8) made of material capable of absorbing moisture, and the wall (6) of the housing (4) comprises heat conductive material.
