Abstract
A turbine operable to convey a flow of exhaust gas along a central axis includes a strut having a flow portion positioned within the flow of exhaust gas and a strut cover having a length and positioned to surround the flow portion of the strut, the strut cover including a leading-edge portion, a mid-chord portion, and a trailing-edge portion. The mid-chord portion has a uniform cross-section, and the trailing-edge portion has a trailing-edge center positioned such that the mid-chord portion and the trailing-edge portion define a master chord plane. The leading-edge portion defines a leading-edge nose, and the leading-edge portion is twisted with respect to the master chord plane and the leading-edge nose along the length defines a curve that is not coincident with the master chord plane.
