Abstract
Provided are a variable geometry turbine and a turbocharger with the same. The variable geometry turbine is provided with a turbine impeller, a housing, a plurality of nozzle vanes, and a link mechanism. Inside the housing, a link compartment in which the link mechanism is accommodated is formed, the link compartment being separated from a nozzle flow path by a hub-side member having a hub side surface defining the nozzle flow path. The link mechanism and each of the plurality of nozzle vanes are coupled together via a nozzle shaft penetrating through the hub-side member. The hub-side member has at least one communication hole providing communication between the nozzle flow path and the link compartment. When each of the plurality of nozzle vanes is fully opened, the opening of the at least one communication hole on the nozzle flow path side is formed on the inner side radially of the turbine impeller than the leading edge of each of the plurality of nozzle vanes.
