An air curtain is a device powered by a fan that creates an invisible air barrier over the door to effectively separate two different environments (indoor environment and outdoor environment), without limiting the access of people or vehicles. It keeps the atmosphere clean of pests and insects, dust, air, pollution, smells, and odors and stops drafts and the entry of hot or cold air. The operation of an air curtain is based on a high-speed jet of air that covers all openings. Air curtains help maintain a comfortable room temperature during hot and humid conditions. They are employed in order to prevent air or contaminants from moving through the open space from entering. Generally, air curtains are used on downward-facing fans that are placed over building entrances or between spaces conditioned at different temperatures. To save energy, air curtains are the best alternative as they reduce the emission of pollutants.
