ducting
Channeling airflow through
Ducting refers to a system of ducts—tubes or channels that convey air, cables, or other materials through a building or structure.
The term covers both the physical tubes themselves and the act of installing them: The contractor finished the ducting for the new HVAC system.
In atmospheric science, ducting describes a phenomenon where radio waves or light bend along unusual paths due to temperature layers in the atmosphere.
