Abstract
An aerosol generating device includes a planar heating element including a mesh of electrically conductive fibres, a heating rod in contact with a central portion of the planar heating element to provide a central region of high current density, thereby providing a temperature gradient across the planar heating element during use, a liquid store, and a liquid transport element arranged between the liquid store and the planar heating element and configured to transport liquid from the liquid store to the planar heating element under capillary action during use, wherein the liquid transport element is arranged in contact with an edge portion of the mesh.
