Abstract:
An aerosol-generating system including a cartridge is provided, the cartridge including a liquid storage portion including a housing configured to hold a liquid aerosol-forming substrate, the housing having an opening; and a heater assembly including at least one heater element fixed to the housing and extending across an opening of the housing, wherein a width of the at least one heater element of the heater assembly is smaller than a width of the opening of the housing. The heater element may be spaced from a periphery of the opening, leading to more efficient heating and aerosol production.

Abstract:
An aerosol-generating system is provided, including an aerosol-generating article and an aerosol-generating device. The aerosol-generating article includes a first compartment having a first one of a volatile delivery enhancing compound source and a medicament source; and a second compartment having a second one of the volatile delivery enhancing compound source and the medicament source. The aerosol-generating device includes a cavity configured to receive the first compartment and the second compartment; and an external heater positioned about a perimeter of the cavity. The aerosol-generating device is configured to heat the first compartment and the second compartment so that the first compartment has a lower temperature than the second compartment.

Abstract:
There is provided an aerosol-generating system including an aerosol-generating device in cooperation with an aerosol-generating article. The aerosol-generating article includes a first compartment including a volatile liquid; and a second compartment including a delivery enhancing compound. The aerosol-generating device includes an outer housing configured to receive the aerosol-generating article; a power supply; a heater, configured to receive power from the power supply and arranged to heat the first compartment when the aerosol-generating article is received in the outer housing; an input, configured to receive an input from a user; and a controller, configured to control an amount of power supplied to the heater in dependence on a user input, such that a quantity of volatile liquid aerosolised is determined by the user input.
