Default What's this part?

Hi all,
When I start the car from cold, and let it run a minute and shut is off again, this part (see attachment) is making a hissing sound that fades away in about 20 seconds.
Probably normal, but given the troubles I am having with my car, I thought I'd just ask:

What part is this and what does it do?
Is it normal that it makes a sound when the engine is stopped?

The car is a Voyager/Dodge Van 2.5 crd of 2003
Thanks
