Zusammenfassung:Disclosed example power systems include an enclosure, an engine within the enclosure; and a generator within the enclosure and configured to convert mechanical power from the engine to electrical power. The enclosure includes a first air inlet on a first end of the enclosure, a first air outlet on a top of the enclosure, and a second air inlet on a side of the enclosure to provide a second airflow through the enclosure. The power system further includes an engine fan configured to generate a first airflow from the first air inlet to the first air outlet to cool the engine. The power system includes a diverter located below the first air outlet and configured to direct environmental contaminants away from at least one of the engine or the generator, where the environmental contaminants enter the enclosure through the first air outlet.
