Abstract
A rotary machine includes a casing part having a return bend part configured to reverse a flow direction of a working fluid flowing from an impeller. The casing part includes a diaphragm having a curved flow path formation surface which forms a curved surface of the return bend part and an outer casing configured to cover the diaphragm and having a concave part which is recessed from an inner circumferential surface. The outer casing has an outer flow path formation surface which forms a part of the return bend part further outward in the radial direction than the curved flow path formation surface. The diaphragm has a convex part which protrudes from an outer circumferential surface outward in the radial direction to be engaged with the concave part. A surface of the convex part in the axial direction extends from the curved flow path formation surface.
