Abstract:
A turbocharger turbine having a blade-gap zone between the blades and the shroud wall. The blade-gap zone is larger at and near the exducer than at an upstream location where the shroud wall is at its minimum radius. Also disclosed is a method of customizing and manufacturing a turbine by establishing an optimized blade-gap zone at the exducer, and machining it into a turbine housing.
