Abstract
Provided is an aerosol generation device with which it is possible to inexpensively observe a heater cooling process with high accuracy, and also possible to inexpensively detect a shortage or depletion of an aerosol source with high accuracy. An aerosol generation device includes an aerosol storage source; a load that atomizes the aerosol source by generating heat by power supplied from a power source, and has an electrical resistance value that changes depending on the temperature; a sensor that detects the electrical resistance value of the load; and a control unit that is configured so as to monitor the cooling process of the load after the temperature of the load has risen to or exceeded a temperature at which the aerosol source can be atomized.
