FIELD: chemistry.SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a method of controlling release of volatile compounds by a heated system, which comprises a power source, a heating element connected to the power source and a base which forms an aerosol, wherein said base releases multiple volatile compounds when heated, each volatile compound having a minimum release temperature above which said volatile compound is released, wherein the method includes: selecting a given maximum operating temperature, controlling temperature of said at least one heating element so that at least one volatile compound is released, said controlling involving: measuring resistivity of said at least one heating element; deducing the value of the real operating temperature of said at least one heating element from the resistivity measurement; comparing the value of real operating temperature with the given maximum operating temperature; and controlling electrical energy fed to said at least one heating element to keep the real operating temperature of said at least one heating element below the given maximum operating temperature.EFFECT: high efficiency of the method.22 cl, 2 dwg |
