Abstract:
A turbine includes: a turbine impeller; a housing disposed so as to enclose the turbine impeller, and including a scroll passage positioned on an outer circumferential side of the turbine impeller and an inner circumferential wall part defining an inner circumferential boundary of the scroll passage; a plurality of nozzle vanes disposed inside an intermediate flow passage which is positioned, in an exhaust gas flow direction, on a downstream side of the scroll passage and on an upstream side of the turbine impeller; and a plate disposed on a side of the intermediate flow passage with respect to the inner circumferential wall part so as to face the intermediate flow passage such that a gap is formed between the plate and the inner circumferential wall part in an axial direction. The plate has at least one through hole through which the intermediate flow passage and the gap are communicated with each other. The at least one through hole opens to a surface of the plate facing the intermediate flow passage, at a position on a radially outer side with respect to a suction surface of at least one of the plurality of nozzle vanes.
