A locomotive (10) is described including a frame (12) having a wall with a roof and floor defining an enclosed space thereon. A turbine engine (44) is disposed therewithin. An air inlet (68) is provided to permit ingress of air into the enclosed space for ingestion by the turbine and for circulation around the turbine to cool the turbine. A first silencer is disposed between the air inlet and the turbine to minimize noise generated by the turbine. An exhaust duct is also provided to permit egress of exhaust gases generated by the turbine. A second silencer, connected to the exhaust duct, is provided to minimize noise generated by the turbine.At least one of the wall, roof, and floor of the enclosed space incorporate noise dampening materials to minimize noise generated by the turbine. An enclosure assembly for a turbine is also disclosed.

L'invention concerne une locomotive (10) comprenant un châssis (12) comportant un toit et un plancher définissant un espace fermé sur ce châssis, dans lequel on a monté un moteur à turbine (44). Une admission d'air (68) permet l'entrée d'air dans l'espace fermé, cet air étant destiné à être aspiré par la turbine et à circuler autour de la turbine afin de refroidir celle-ci. Un premier silencieux est monté entre l'admission d'air et la turbine pour réduire au maximum le bruit produit par la turbine. Un conduit d'échappement permet également la sortie des gaz d'échappement produits par la turbine. Un second silencieux, raccordé au conduit d'échappement, sert à réduire au maximum le bruit produit par la turbine. On a incorporé dans au moins l'un des éléments -paroi, toit ou plancher- de l'espace fermé, des matériaux d'amortissement servant à réduire au maximum le bruit produit par la turbine. L'invention concerne également un ensemble carter de turbine.
