Aerosol generating device
The present disclosure relates to an aerosol generating device for heating solid tobacco substance. The aerosol generating device includes a housing having a first air inlet, a power supply, a cup body arranged in the housing, a coil module, and a heating element. The power supply is configured for supplying an alternating current power supply. The cup body is configured for receiving the solid tobacco substance, and defines a second air inlet. The coil module is arranged between the housing and the cup body. Two opposite ends of the coil module are connected to the alternating current power supply, such that the coil module generates a high frequency alternating magnetic field. The heating element is arranged at a center of the cup body. The heating element is configured for generating an eddy current and heat in response to the alternating magnetic field, thus heating the solid tobacco substance.
