Temperature control is reserved for coils that support it - on this mod that means nickel or titanium. You're reading of .15 means it is probably nickel. The device has a built-in program that understands how the resistance of the wire changes as heat is applied to it. So it basically follows a chart of how hot the coil would be based on the change. This allows the mod to adjust power so it doesn't overheat the coil/wick. The wattage setting in TC mode adjusts how fast it will attempt to get to the set temperature.

so if i set it at low temperature it wont butn the eliquid as fast as a 0.15coil? what i mean is the 0.15 coil just a name or is the same as vw?

.15Ω is not a name it is the resistance of the replaceable head.

The replaceable head is the part you thread into the base of your delivery device / clearomizer / tank / topper, it is a pre made single unit that contains the coil & wicking material.
The holes top & bottom are for airflow through the head, the holes on the side allow eliquid to flow into the wicking material.
Some folks call them 'coils' but that leads to confusion with RBA's where the user has to wrap, mount, measure resistance & adjust coil(s) then wick what they've built.

Like the previous response said, temp control heads should be used in the temp control mode of the power device you're using.
The coil inside the .15Ω substank head is Ni200 referred to as nickle.
Ni = nickle/ Ni200.
Ti = titanium.
Select the appropriate TC mode on your power device, TC-Ni / TC-Ti.
Then set W & temp.

If your main problem is burning liquid there are several causes.
Most sub ohm 'tanks' are designed for direct lung inhales - rapid strong inhale direct to lungs.
Trying to mouth to lung will not pull enough air through the system to cool the head & will cause burning.
Using a temp control head (Ni or Ti) in watt mode.
