Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -ovens use air to transfer heat and hot air rises. hence the top of your oven being hotter than the bottom. hot air is less dense than cold. so when you open your oven it quickly escapes being pushed out by cold air.

Detailed explanation-2: -If you are right-handed, stand at the left side of the oven with your left side toward the counter. If you are left-handed, stand at the right side of the oven with your right side toward the counter. Place your non-dominant hand on the counter next to the oven.

Detailed explanation-3: -Avoid opening the oven while you’re cooking When you open the oven door, the heat escapes into your kitchen and the temperature inside your oven decreases. That means that your oven needs time to heat up again once you’ve closed the door.

Detailed explanation-4: -Assuming you preheated the oven, it was hot. But when you open the door and see a big cloud of vapor, that means that the oven had cooled off, probably because of evaporative cooling (as water evaporates off the food, it cools both the food and the air). It’s the cold oven that’s limiting your crisping.
