Abstract
A turbine housing includes an accommodation space that accommodates a turbine wheel, a discharge passage connected to the accommodation space, and a bypass passage that extends from the scroll passage bypassing the accommodation space and is connected to the discharge passage. The bypass passage extends so that an end surface on an upstream side of the catalytic device is located on a center axis of the bypass passage. An air-fuel ratio sensor is located closer to a center axis of the accommodation space than the center axis of the bypass passage. A protuberance that protrudes from an inner wall surface of the discharge passage is located between the accommodation space and the air-fuel ratio sensor. The protuberance protrudes toward the center axis of the accommodation space.
