An aerosol-generating device having a heat-conducting element

An aerosol-generating device, comprising:

• a heat-conducting element at least partially defining a chamber configured to receive at least a portion of an aerosol-generating article, the heat-conducting element formed from at least one of a non-electrically conductive material and a non-inductively heatable material;
• an inductor coil extending around at least a portion of the heat-conducting element;
• and
• a power supply and a control circuitry connected to the inductor coil and configured to provide an alternating electric current to the inductor coil such that the inductor coil generates an alternating magnetic field.
