Abstract

A duct includes an inner tube configured to have fluid flow through to be transported and an outer tube surrounding the inner tube. The outer tube defines, in its interior, a plurality of auxiliary channels, which extend in the longitudinal direction of the outer tube and are designed to contain or have a further auxiliary fluid flow through, which is configured to thermally interact with the fluid to be transported.
