Abstract: Described herein is an aerosol-generating device for generating aerosol from an aerosol-generating material. The aerosol-generating device comprises a heating assembly having a mouth end and a distal end. The heating assembly comprises: a first induction heating unit arranged to heat, but not burn, the aerosol-generating material in use; a second induction heating unit arranged to heat, but not burn, the aerosol-generating material in use, the first induction heating unit being disposed closer to the mouth end of the heating assembly than the second induction heating unit; and a controller for controlling the first and second induction heating units. The heating assembly is configured such that at least one induction heating unit reaches a maximum operating temperature within 20 seconds of supplying power to the at least one induction heating unit.

Abstract: An aerosol provision device is provided. The aerosol provision device can include a heater assembly configured to heat aerosol generating material, an indicator assembly and a controller. The controller is configured to cause the heater assembly to heat the aerosol generating material and determine a characteristic of the heater assembly. If the determined characteristic satisfies at least one criterion, the controller is configured to cause the indicator assembly to indicate that the device is ready for use.

Abstract: An aerosol provision device is provided. The device comprises a heater assembly configured to heat aerosol generating material, an input interface configured to receive an input for selecting an operating mode from a plurality of operating modes and a controller. The controller is configured to detect operation of the input interface and cause the heater assembly to begin heating the aerosol generating material in dependence on the detected operation of the input interface.

Abstract: Apparatus for an aerosol generating system comprises an inductive element for inductively heating a susceptor arrangement to heat an aerosol generating material to thereby generate an aerosol, an insulating member which in use is located between the inductive element and the susceptor arrangement to thermally insulate the susceptor arrangement from the inductive element; a temperature sensor for measuring a temperature at a location in the system insulated in use from the susceptor arrangement by the insulating member, and a control arrangement. The control arrangement is configured to monitor the temperature measured by the temperature sensor and take a control action if, based on the temperature measured by the temperature sensor, the control arrangement determines that the susceptor arrangement is overheating.
