Abstract
An exhaust passage including a protrusion which is less likely to receive heat from a gas and hence has high heat-resistance reliability is provided. An exhaust passage includes an exhaust pipe, and a protrusion continuously formed over a range of a part of an inner surface of the exhaust pipe in a circumferential direction thereof, the protrusion being inclined toward a direction in which the exhaust pipe extends, and being configured in such a manner that a cross-sectional area of the exhaust pipe becomes smaller toward a downstream side thereof, in which the exhaust passage further includes a convex part on an inner surface of the protrusion.
