Abstract: The invention relates to a vaporiser assembly for use in a vapour provision system, wherein the vaporiser assembly comprises: a liquid transport element formed from cotton; and a heating element comprising a coil of resistive wire around a portion of the liquid transport element, wherein the heating element has an electrical resistance of between 1.3 ohms and 1.5 ohms.

Abstract: A cartridge for a vapor provision system including the cartridge and a control unit, wherein the cartridge includes a housing part having a mouthpiece end and an interface end, wherein the mouthpiece end includes a vapor outlet for the cartridge and the interface end includes an interface for coupling the cartridge to a control unit; an air channel extending from an air inlet in the housing part to the vapor outlet; a reservoir within the housing part containing liquid for vaporization, wherein an end of the reservoir at the interface end of the housing part is sealed by a resilient plug, wherein the reservoir includes a dividing wall between a first reservoir region on a side of the dividing wall facing the mouth piece end of the housing part and a second reservoir region on a side of the dividing wall facing the interface end of the housing part, wherein the dividing wall includes at least one fluid communication opening to provide fluid communication between the first reservoir region and the second reserv

Abstract: An aerosol source for an electronic vapor provision system includes a heating element; an atomizing chamber; a reservoir for holding free-flowing source liquid; and a porous wick extending from the atomizing chamber to the reservoir and comprising a heater portion in cooperation with the heating element within the atomizing chamber and at least one liquid collecting portion within the reservoir, the liquid collecting portion having a maximum cross-sectional parameter that is greater than an equivalent cross-sectional parameter of the heater portion.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing wick material for use as a liquid transport element in a vapor provision system, the method including providing at least one cotton thread; and twisting the at least one cotton thread to form the wick material, wherein the wick material diameter is controlled to meet a target diameter within a tolerance of +5%/?2.5% of the target diameter.

Abstract: A turbine engine nozzle assembly has an upstream flap and a downstream flap pivotally coupled thereto for relative rotation about a hinge axis. An actuator linkage is coupled to the downstream flap along a forward portion thereof for actuating the upstream flaps and downstream flaps between a number of throat area conditions while permitting mode changes.
