  • Non-burning type flavor inhaler and atomizing unit calculating the amount of aerosol consumed
    Patent number: 10863773
    Abstract: This non-combustion type flavor inhaler is provided with an atomization unit having an aerosol source and a resistive heating element for atomizing the aerosol source with resistive heat, and a control unit which controls the amount of power supplied to the resistive heating element, wherein the amount of power supplied to the resistive heating element during the action of a single puff is represented by E, characteristic parameters of the atomization unit are represented by a and b, the amount of the aerosol source consumed with one puff action is represented by L, and the control unit calculates L with the formula L=aE+b, or, controls E in accordance with the formula E=(L?b)/a.
