1. A device for generating an inhalable aerosol comprising:
- an oven comprising an oven chamber and a heater for heating a vapor forming medium in the oven chamber to generate a vapor;
a condenser comprising a condensation chamber in which at least a fraction of the vapor condenses to form the inhalable aerosol;
an air inlet that originates a first airflow path that includes the oven chamber; and
an aeration vent that originates a second airflow path that allows air from the aeration vent to join the first airflow path prior to or within the condensation chamber and downstream from the oven chamber thereby forming a joined path, wherein the joined path is configured to deliver the inhalable aerosol formed in the condensation chamber to a user.

Abstract
Provided herein are systems and methods to generate an inhalable vapor in an electronic vaporization device. The vaporization device may generate a vapor with one or more defined characteristics. In some cases, the vapor may have a predetermined aerosol number density and/or a predetermined average aerosol diameter. The vaporization device may generate a vapor from a vaporizable material. In some cases, the vaporizable material may be a liquid material housed in a cartridge. The vaporization device may comprise a rechargeable power storage device.
