Abstract
An aerosol generating device includes a first cartridge including a first material and a delivery hole, a second cartridge including chambers for accommodating a second material through which an aerosol passes, a position of the second cartridge with respect to the first cartridge being changeable, a remaining amount sensor configured to detect a remaining amount of the first material, and a controller configured to determine a consumption amount at which the first material is consumed with respect to a usage chamber that currently passes the aerosol based on the detected remaining amount of the first material and to compare the consumption amount of the first material with a pre-set reference consumption amount of the first material with respect to the usage chamber, thereby determining a position changing time at which changing of a position of the second cartridge is required.
