MOTOR TREND has a number of views. A look at every available image would be prudent for anyone embarking on an air curtain project.
Short of $33 SAE Papers, I've no knowledge of any resources which actually explained the mechanism for an air curtains efficacy.
One would presume that there is a volumetric, velocity, and geometric component to a successful jet, and it's never been defined, to my knowledge.
It is exactly the kind of feature best 'executed' within CFD, and then verified in a tunnel.
