Abstract
A turbocharger includes: a turbine wheel; a hub-side wall surface and a shroud-side wall surface which face each other and which together form a flow path for exhaust gas to flow into the turbine wheel; and a nozzle vane which has a shroud-side end surface facing the shroud-side wall surface and a hub-side end surface facing the hub-side wall surface and which is rotatably disposed in the flow path. The nozzle vane has a pressure surface which is, at least on a shroud side, oblique toward a downstream side of the exhaust gas with a distance in a vane height direction from the shroud-side end surface.
