It doesn’t work. It’s an optical illusion, but is so compelling that yiu hallucinate feeling the air move.
This was first used on gas stoves, which is where the term gaslighting came from.

It actually came from WWI, and it used to be called “gaslamping,” since that’s what they had used at the time.
