What is the function of a eustachian tube in a human?

This is the tube that connects the ear with the throat. Its function is to equalize air pressure on both sides of the eardrum to keep the eardrum from rupturing and to reduce pain that may be felt when air pressure is reduced. When a person yawns or swallows, the eustachian tube opens, and some of the air in the middle ear may pass into the throat, adjusting the pressure in the middle ear to match the pressure in the outer ear.
