(54) AEROSOL PROVISION SYSTEM


(57) An aerosol provision system comprises control circuitry for determining an operational parameter of the aerosol provision system, an aerosol generator configured to aerosolize an aerosol-generating material and a sensor configured to detect an inhalation on the aerosol provision system by a user of the aerosol provision system, and output corresponding inhalation detection signals to the control circuitry. The control circuitry is configured to determine a duration of the inhalation based on the inhalation detection signals received from the sensor, and determine an indication of an amount of an ingredient delivered from the aerosol-generating material to the user during the inhalation based on the duration of the inhalation and an indication of the operational parameter during the inhalation.
