The separation section (24) has an air circulation separator (40) arranged above a cooling package (34). The air circulation separator is provided with a cover including a rotational axis, which is aligned at an angle of 5 degree with respect to a perpendicular line. An engine compartment (32) is defined by an engine compartment outer wall (22). The cooling package and a fan (36) are arranged adjacent to an internal combustion engine (14) in the engine compartment. Multiple openings (28) are formed in the engine compartment outer wall. Die Erfindung betrifft eine Motorraumabschottung (24). Um eine Motorraumabschottung (24) sowie eine Komponente dafür zur Verfügung zu stellen, durch die der Wirkungsgrad mindestens eines in dem Motorraum (32) angeordneten Kühlaggregats verbessert wird, ist gemäß der Erfindung eine Umluftabschottung (40) vorgesehen.
