An engine compartment assembly and a vehicle include an engine compartment. The engine compartment assembly and the vehicle also include an inlet configured to allow a flow of air into the engine compartment and an outlet configured to allow at least some of the flow of air out of the engine compartment. The engine compartment assembly and the vehicle further include a wall disposed closer to the outlet than the inlet. Generally, the wall extends in a manner to create an air dam which enhances the flow of air through at least part of the engine compartment. In certain embodiments, the wall extends outwardly from the belly pan away from the engine compartment to create a pressure reduction at the outlet which in turn enhances the flow of air through at least part of the engine compartment.
