[0048] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application more clear, the embodiments of the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 1 The present application provides a heating control method, which can be applied to an aerosol generating device 10, which can include a heating chamber 14, a power supply 12, a heating assembly 11 for heating an aerosol forming substrate 20 received in the heating chamber 14 when in operation to generate an aerosol, and a control assembly 13 for controlling the power supply 12 to provide power to the heating assembly 11 according to heating operation parameters.

[0050] The heating chamber 14 is a heating space for the aerosol forming substrate 20, and its internal environment is calculated to ensure that the substrate can be uniformly and efficiently converted into an aerosol during heating. The power supply 12 module is like a power source of the aerosol generating device 10, which continuously provides power to the entire system, and its stability and efficiency directly affect the heating effect.

[0051] The heating assembly 11 is responsible for converting electrical energy into heat energy to heat the aerosol forming substrate 20. It uses advanced heating technology and materials to accurately control the temperature while quickly heating up, avoiding damage to the substrate caused by overheating, thereby preserving the flavor and taste of the substrate. The heating assembly 11 can be an inner heating assembly 11, an outer heating assembly 11, or a combination of inner and outer heating assemblies 11, which is not limited by the present application.

[0052] Inner heating refers to the heating assembly 11 being positioned at least partially inside the aerosol forming substrate 20 to directly heat the aerosol generating substrate. The inner heating method is achieved by designing a specific heating tube or heating body. For example, a heating tube has a heating cavity inside for accommodating the aerosol generating substrate, and a heating layer is provided on the outside or inside of the heating tube to generate heat by electrification to heat the substrate.

[0053] In addition, auxiliary structures such as a uniform heating layer and a medium layer can be added as needed to improve the uniformity and efficiency of heating. Since the heating assembly 11 is in closer contact with the substrate, the desired heating temperature can be reached faster. The internal heating method can directly heat the aerosol generating substrate, improving the heating efficiency.

[0054] External heating refers to positioning the heating assembly 11 outside the aerosol forming substrate 20 and heating the substrate through heat conduction or radiation. External heating usually involves designing a special heating chamber or tubular body to accommodate the aerosol forming substrate 20. The heating assembly 11 (such as a heating element, a planar spiral coil, etc.) is arranged outside the heating chamber or tubular body.

[0055] The external heating method can also incorporate structures such as a heat insulation tube and a support frame to improve the uniformity and stability of heating. The external heating method can avoid direct contact between the heating assembly 11 and the aerosol generating substrate, reducing contamination and damage to the heating assembly 11 by the substrate. By reasonably designing the heating chamber and the heat insulation structure, uniform heating of the substrate can be achieved, improving the quality of aerosol generation.

[0056] The control assembly 13 is the intelligent control center of the entire aerosol generating device 10. It can adjust the amount of electrical energy delivered to the heating assembly 11 by the power supply 12 according to the preset heating operating parameters such as the target temperature and the heating time, achieving precise temperature control. At the same time, it can also monitor the heating state in real time through the built-in sensor and respond and adjust in a timely manner to abnormal situations, ensuring a smooth and safe heating process.

[0057] Please refer to Figure 2 The present application provides a heating control method which can be applied to the above-mentioned aerosol generating device 10. The heating control method can specifically include the following steps:

[0058] Step S1: The control assembly 13 obtains user puffing data.

[0059] Step S2: The control assembly 13 analyzes and processes the data of the aerosol release amount according to the user puffing data, and determines the aerosol release data.

[0060] Specifically, step S2 includes:

[0061] Step S21: The control assembly 13 fits the particle release curve of the aerosol according to the flow rate of each puff of the user puffing data and the corresponding particle release amount.

[0062] Step S22: The control assembly 13 determines the aerosol release data according to the particle release curve.

[0063] As shown in Table 1, by deeply analyzing the internal relationship between the particulate matter per second and the puffing flow rate, a function relationship model corresponding to the two can be constructed by using curve fitting technology.

[0064] Table 1: Puffing data of a certain brand product

[0065]

[0066] As Figure 3 shown, in the actual monitoring process, the flow rate and time during puffing are monitored in real time and accurately by means of a high-precision airflow sensor, and then the puffing particulate matter data of each puff is accurately obtained.

[0067] In the form of a polynomial curve y = ax 2 + bx + c, the puffing flow rate is taken as the independent variable x, and the particulate matter per second is taken as the dependent variable y, curve fitting is performed, and the particulate matter release curve of the aerosol is obtained.

[0068] Through the puffing flow rate, puffing time and particulate matter per second, the puffing particulate matter data of each puff can be obtained.

[0069] Step S3: The control component 13 controls the heating component 11 to heat according to the user puffing information and / or the aerosol release data.

[0070] Specifically, step S3 includes:

[0071] Step S31: The control component 13 calculates the cumulative puffing time according to the user puffing information.

[0072] Step S32: The control component 13 judges whether the cumulative puffing time is greater than a preset puffing time threshold value: if yes, the control component 13 controls the heating component 11 to stop heating.

[0073] Step S33: The control component 13 calculates the total number of particulate matters per puff according to the aerosol release data.

[0074] Step S34: The control component judges whether the total number of particulate matters is greater than a preset particulate matter threshold value: if yes, the control component 13 controls the heating component 11 to stop heating.

[0075] Exemplarily, these data can be accumulated and calculated, and the accumulation result is compared and analyzed in detail with the set optimal release amount 50mg of the cigarette, the total particulate matter threshold value and the threshold value of the longest puffing time 6min, so as to determine whether to control the heating component 11 to stop heating.

[0076] It should be noted that the control component 13 can select to execute step S32 or step S34 according to specific application scenarios and requirements, or can execute step S32 and step S34 simultaneously to improve the heating accuracy of the control component 13 in controlling the heating component 11.

[0077] It can be understood that the present application realizes the prediction of the particulate matter of each puff according to the puff flow rate by determining the maximum total particulate matter that can be released by the aerosol-forming substrate 20 and analyzing the relationship between the puff flow rate and the particulate matter per second, and dynamically adjusts the number of puffs by combining the total particulate matter content, thereby realizing the adaptive adjustment of the number of puffs and time.

[0078] Please refer to Figure 4 When the user is ready to puff, the sensor of the aerosol-generating device is started, and the sensor includes a puff sensor. The control component 13 monitors the puff data of the user through the puff sensor and fits the monitoring data into a particulate matter release curve with the puff flow rate as the independent variable and the particulate matter per second as the dependent variable.

[0079] Then, the control component 13 obtains the particulate matter of each puff by combining the particulate matter release curve with the puff flow rate and the puff time of each puff.

[0080] The control component 13 accumulatively calculates the particulate matter of each puff and accumulatively calculates the puff time of each puff at the end of each puff.

[0081] If the control component 13 identifies that the particulate matter of the puff exceeds the maximum total particulate matter A or the puff time exceeds the maximum time B, the control component 13 controls the heating component 11 to stop heating.

[0082] Otherwise, the control component 13 controls the heating component 11 to continue heating and continues to calculate the particulate matter and the puff time.

[0083] It can be understood that the control component of the aerosol-generating device provided by the present application corresponds to the heating control method provided by the present application.
