Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a temperature regulating apparatus for regulating a temperature of a polishing surface of a polishing pad used for polishing a substrate, such as a wafer. The present invention further relates to a polishing apparatus including such a temperature regulating apparatus. The temperature regulating apparatus (5) includes: a heat exchanger (11) having a heating flow passage (61) and a cooling flow passage (62) formed therein; a holder (90) arranged over the heat exchanger (11); a coupling mechanism (80) configured to detachably fix the heat exchanger (11) to the holder (90), the coupling mechanism (80) including: a first hook (73) fixed to an upper surface of the heat exchanger (11); and a second hook (83) held by the holder (90). The second hook (83) is configured to be able to be engaged with and disengaged from the first hook (73).
