Abstract
A radial turbine comprises a plurality of nozzle vanes disposed along a circumferential direction inside a spiral scroll and configured to regulate a flow of a working gas from the scroll to a rotor blade, wherein each of the nozzle vane includes a leading edge bulging portion on both end portions in a width direction of an inlet leading edge portion, the leading edge bulging portion being bulged toward a pressure face side of the nozzle vane relative to a central portion, so that a vane angle is configured to correspond with an inflow angle of the working gas to be flown into the nozzle vane, and wherein each of the nozzle vane includes a trailing edge bulging portion on both end portions in a width direction of an outlet trailing edge portion, the trailing edge bulging portion being bulged toward the pressure face side relative to a central portion, so that an outflow angle of the working gas from the outlet trailing edge of the nozzle vane becomes uniform.
