A fluid diverting air inlet includes an intake opening through an outer surface of an enclosure for receiving air flowing outside the outer surface. The intake opening ramps downwardly below the outer surface to define an intake passageway. An air diversion device is formed by lateral sidewalls of the intake opening that extend vertically above the outer surface. The lateral sidewalls converge together at an upstream end of the air inlet, and the lateral sidewalls diverge apart towards a downstream end of the air inlet. Flanges extend outwardly from the tops of the lateral sidewalls such that divided air passageways for boundary layer fluids are formed on each side of the air diversion device. The sidewalls and flanges are integrated with the air inlet such that fluid moving immediately adjacent the outer surface of the enclosure is diverted around the air inlet to avoid ingestion into the intake opening.
