AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Aerosol generating devices with a single heating element fail to provide optimal flavor experience due to varying medium lengths of aerosol generating substrates, and devices with multiple heating elements lack temperature profile control for sustained flavor during heating.

Method used

An aerosol generating device with a heater structure featuring an insulating substrate and multiple heating elements, controlled by a battery and a control unit to independently manage power distribution based on substrate type and length, including graphene elements for efficient heating.

Benefits of technology

The device enhances flavor persistence by optimizing flavor experience throughout heating and reduces power consumption through efficient heating with graphene elements.
