Abstract
A turbine for a turbo-machine is proposed in which, at a gas inlet, vanes, extending from a nozzle ring though slots in a shroud, are shaped on one side to as to substantially conform to the profile of the surface of the slot, whereby a close connection can be formed between the vane and the slot to inhibit leakage of gas between the vane and the slot surface.
