Abstract
An inlet guide vane according to the disclosure includes a plurality of movable blades disposed at intervals in a circumferential direction of a rotor shaft and rotatable about a center axis extending in a radial direction of the rotor shaft. Each of the movable blades includes a first blade surface and a second blade surface extending in a direction connecting a leading edge and a trailing edge, and an inclined surface formed at a trailing end including the trailing edge and extending obliquely from the first blade surface to the second blade surface when viewed from the radial direction. The inclined surface is a flat surface whose cross-sectional shape viewed from the radial direction is inclined so as to be connected, at an acute angle, to the second blade surface at the trailing edge.
