Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2023064298A1] An electronic vaping device includes a heating element that is to be energized to convert a portion of a vaping material into a vapor by elevating a temperature of the vaping material. The vaping material, in a first thermal state, comprises a relatively-high viscosity. The electronic vaping device also includes airflow passage through which air entraining the vapor flows as a result of a user inhaling through a mouthpiece during a puff. A control circuit operates the heating element in a maintenance mode after the puff to maintain the vaping material in a second thermal state. The vaping material comprises a relatively-low viscosity in the second thermal state, and the relatively-high viscosity is greater than the relatively-low viscosity.
