Remarks

The new duct will have the same diameter and system type as the specified connector. The creation will also connect the new duct to the component who owns the specified connector. If necessary, additional fitting(s) are included to make a valid connection. If the new duct can not be connected to the next component (e.g., mismatched direction, no valid fitting, and etc), the new duct will still be created at the specified connector position, and an InvalidOperationException is thrown.
