Abstract: An apparatus, system and method for controlling airflow is described. The apparatus comprises a wall which delimits a flared bore. The apparatus further comprises at least one air guide member which retractably protrudes into the flared bore from the wall. The flared bore widens to an outlet, thereby to permit a diverging airflow to be expelled therefrom when each of the at least one air guide member is retracted. When the at least one air guide member protrudes into the flared bore, air flowing in the flared bore is guided by a surface, e.g. a concave surface, of the respective air guide member away from the wall and towards the outlet. The retractable air guide member thus enables the direction and/or degree of convergence of the air flowing out of the outlet to be controlled.
