Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021170640A1] There is provided an aerosol-generating article (10) for producing an inhalable aerosol upon heating, the aerosol-generating article (10) comprising: a rod (12) of aerosol-generating substrate; a mouthpiece element (42) having a length of at least 10 millimetres; and an intermediate hollow section (50) between the rod (12) of aerosol-generating substrate and the mouthpiece element (42). The intermediate hollow section (50) comprises an aerosol-cooling element (24) in axial alignment with the mouthpiece element (42) and abutting the upstream end of the mouthpiece element (42), the aerosol-cooling element (24) having a length of less than millimetres and comprising a hollow tubular segment (34) defining a longitudinal cavity (36) providing an unrestricted flow channel, wherein the hollow tubular segment has a wall thickness of between 1.5 millimetres and 2.5 millimetres.
