The phrase "air barrier" is correct and usable in written English.
It is typically used in contexts related to construction, building science, or environmental control, referring to a material or system that prevents air movement between different areas.
Example: "To improve energy efficiency, we need to install an effective air barrier in the building envelope."
Alternatives: "air seal" or "air impermeable layer".
Sure, the technology that uses inert argon gas between the panes creates an efficient air barrier, but the firefighters also loved how much it reduced exterior noise.
Items on the checklist include: tightly seal the air barrier between the garage and living area; insulate hot water pipes; use Forest Stewardship Council-certified wood; use paint low in volatile organic compounds.
Traditionally, the accessibility of the lung by ultrasound was considered poor due to the air barrier.
We devised an atmospheric air barrier plasma system and used only an ambient air as discharge gas.
Many of these curtain-wall systems can be classified as a two-barrier system with a front-panel (the rainscreen) and the back-panel (the air barrier).
These permeable coverings improved the indoor partial vapour pressure and, as a result, the ambience acceptability and local thermal comfort, despite the use of an air barrier and less permeable coverings, when compared with other authors.
This paper discusses bio-inspired ideas for chip transport and tool cleaning, abrasive wear resistance, self-sharpening, breaking air barriers, cooling, and new process environments.
Insulate and create air barriers (durable seal) for floors, walls, ceilings (extensions, attachments, openings) on all six sides of your home/building (insulated box) -- top, bottom, back, front, left, and right.
I often think back with a protective tenderness towards my younger self and wish I were somehow able to dissuade him from such a mutilation, from breaking the blood-air barrier in that crazy way.
A specific environment for pneumocytes in form of a blood-air barrier was simulated in gradient perfusion culture[28].
Notably, despite its vulnerable blood-air barrier, the lung is relatively resistant to the onset of pulmonary edema.
