Abstract
Provided is a transition duct that forms an annular gas flow channel through which a main flow gas flows from a high-pressure turbine to a low-pressure turbine, wherein the gas flow channel has an inner peripheral flow channel surface and an outer peripheral flow channel surface, the inner peripheral flow channel surface and the outer peripheral flow channel surface extend radially outward while angles of inclination relative to an axial direction of a rotating shaft change from the high-pressure turbine (first turbine) toward the low-pressure turbine (second turbine), and an inner peripheral maximum inclined part is provided in a range Athat extends in the axial direction from a position of alignment with an outer peripheral maximum inclined part to a position advanced toward the low-pressure turbine by a length no more than 20% of the duct length.
