A method of controlling electric power supplied to a heater includes controlling the electric power supplied to the heater by a first method until a temperature of the heater reaches an upper limit of a pre-heating temperature section; and controlling the electric power supplied to the heater by a second method to a target temperature that is higher than the upper limit, when the temperature of the heater reaches the upper limit.

An embodiment of the present disclosure, may provide an aerosol generating device which may include a first heater for heating a cigarette inserted into a first portion of the aerosol generating device; a second heater for heating a liquid composition stored in a cartridge detachably attached to a second portion of the aerosol generating device; and a controller for controlling power supplied to the first heater and the second heater, wherein the controller may control the power supplied to the second heater based on a heating pattern by which the first heater is heated.

A container for an aerosol-generating device is provided, including a first compartment including a nicotine source, a second compartment including a delivery enhancing compound, and a transfer section disposed between the first compartment and the second compartment, the first and second compartments being formed from a laminate material including at least one layer of cardboard material and at least one layer of polymeric material, the layer of polymeric material forming an internal surface of the compartments. There is also provided a container where at least one of the first compartment and the second compartment comprises a recessed end, wherein the transfer section is formed by a recess when one end of the first compartment abuts one end of the second compartment. An aerosol-generating system is also provided, including an aerosol-generating device configured to receive the container.

This flavor inhaler is provided with a housing having an air flow path that spans continuously from an inlet to an outlet, and an atomizing part for atomizing an aerosol source without accompanying combustion of the aerosol source, wherein at least one portion of the air flow path is an aerosol flow path which is a flow path for an aerosol generated from the atomizing part, and the air blow resistance of the whole air flow path is not greater than 25 mmAq.

The aerosol-generating article is capable of being used with an electrically-operated aerosol-generating device. The aerosol-generating article is a consumable article having an outlet end, a distal end upstream from the outlet end, and a mid-point located an equal distance between the outlet end and the distal end. The article includes a first volatile liquid substrate contained within a first frangible capsule, the frangible capsule being located between the distal end and the mid-point, and a second volatile liquid substrate contained within a second frangible capsule, the second frangible capsule being located between the distal end and the mid-point. The article also includes a liquid retention medium, at least a portion the liquid retention medium being located between the distal end and the mid-point, wherein the article is configured to allow air to be drawn through the article from the distal end to the outlet end.

A flavor assembly for an e-vaping device cartridge is configured to provide mechanically-adjustable flavorant elution to form a flavored vapor. The flavor assembly may include at least one flavor material holding a flavorant and a exposure control mechanism configured to adjustably expose the at least one flavor material to the vaporizer assembly to adjustably control flavorant elution from the at least one flavor reservoir into the generated vapor. The flavor assembly may be included in a flavor assembly module. The flavor assembly module may include an interface configured to couple with a vaporizer assembly and direct generated vapors formed by the vaporizer assembly to the flavor assembly. The flavor assembly may include multiple flavor materials holding different flavorants. The exposure control mechanism may adjustably expose a selected flavor material. The flavor assembly may be included in an e-vaping device that includes control circuitry configured to control the exposure control mechanism.
