More Information
Summary:An electrical smoking system (20) comprises a tobacco mass (24) which is heated to a temperature of about 150°C to about 220°C to release flavorful tobacco volatiles, which are entrained in air (26) passing through the tobacco mass and condensed to form an inhalable aerosol (32). The tobacco mass may have a rotationally symmetric shape, with at least part of its surface in heat transfer relationship with a heater (22). The heater may be an external shell, an internal rod, or a plate. A mouthpiece (60), with or without a filter, may be arranged in fluid communication with the tobacco mass to direct the aerosol from the system.
