Abstract
A vaporizing assembly for an aerosol-generating system may comprise a delivery device and a heater assembly. The heater assembly may comprise a heat resistive substrate and a heating element. The delivery device is configured to deliver an aerosol-forming substrate to at least a surface of the heat resistive substrate, wherein the heating element is isolated or separated from the aerosol-forming substrate by the heat resistive substrate. The present disclosure is also directed to a method for generating an aerosol.
Claims18
A vaporizer comprising:
- a heater assembly including a substrate and a heating element, the substrate including a first surface and an opposing second surface;
- and
- a delivery device spaced apart from the heater assembly, the delivery device configured to dispense a metered amount of a liquid onto the first surface of the substrate, the heating element disposed such that the first surface of the substrate is between the delivery device and the heating element, the delivery device having a longitudinal axis, and the first surface of the substrate is at an oblique angle to the longitudinal axis.
