Generally speaking, air flows in and out of a building because of differences in air pressure. A revolving door isn't airtight, but the barrier it creates makes the impact of that air pressure differential less important. Every time the door spins, some air will leave the building and some will come in, but overall, much less passes.

No they make sure the entrance is always sealed at all times so less heat escapes from the building
