An '''Airduct''' releases [[oxygen]] into the [[atmosphere]] of the internal section of the ship's [[Main Deck|main deck]] and [[habitation deck]] when powered.
An '''Airduct''' releases [[oxygen]] into the [[atmosphere]] of the internal section of the ship's [[Main Deck|main deck]] and [[habitation deck]] when powered.
It uses 1 power per second during charging and while at rest, when in use it uses 9 power
==Air supply==
On full capacity, it supplies 10 oxygen per second to the atmosphere. When the atmosphere is saturated, the airduct supplies just enough oxygen, to keep it that way, if possible. As one person needs ca. 4 oxygen per minute, ca. one airduct is needed for every 150 people aboard a starship.asd
Currently an airduct will use a little bit more oxygen then needed for maintaining a saturated atmosphere. Therefore, having more airducts (connected) than needed, introduces an oxygen leak, wasting a variable amount of it.
