Aerosol Generation System with Thermal Regulation Mechanism

A consumable for use with and attachable to an aerosol generation device comprising a heating element, the consumable comprising:

• an aerosol generation substrate;
• and
• a heat transfer element for heating the aerosol generation substrate for generating an aerosol;
• wherein the heat transfer element is arranged to be heated by the heating element of the aerosol generation device when the consumable is attached to the aerosol generation device, and
• the heat transfer element is configured to be deformed when its temperature is at or above a threshold temperature, such that an area of contact, arranged to exists between the heating element and the heat transfer element when the consumable is attached to the aerosol generation device and a temperature of the heat transfer element is below the threshold temperature, is reduced, or eliminated.
