Abstract
A turbocharger includes a turbine housing having a hub-side scroll flow path and a shroud-side scroll flow path, and a turbine wheel having front edges for receiving a working fluid from the hub-side scroll flow path and the shroud-side scroll flow path. Each front edge of the turbine wheel includes a first portion for receiving the working fluid flowing out from the hub-side scroll flow path, and a second portion for receiving the working fluid flowing out from the shroud-side scroll flow path. The first portion is inclined with respect to a virtual plane including a rotational axis in a direction opposite a rotational direction of the turbine wheel. The second portion is inclined with respect to the virtual plane in the rotational direction.
