Zusammenfassung: | An aerosol generating apparatus has a composite susceptor for heating an aerosol generating material in use thereby to generate an aerosol. The composite susceptor comprises a support portion and a susceptor portion supported by the support portion. The apparatus comprises an induction element arranged for inductive energy transfer to the susceptor portion in use; and a driving arrangement arranged to drive the induction element with an alternating current in use thereby to cause the inductive energy transfer to the susceptor portion, thereby to cause the heating of the aerosol generating material by the composite susceptor, thereby to generate the aerosol. The alternating current has a waveform comprising a fundamental frequency component having a first frequency and one or more further frequency components each having a frequency higher than the first frequency. A method of operating the aerosol generating apparatus is also disclosed. |
