A turbine housing construction particularly adapted for use with turbochargers for internal combustion engines. A vortex transition duct is inserted between the source of exhaust gas for driving the turbine and the exhaust gas inlet of the turbine volute. In prior turbocharger constructions, the distribution of the velocity of the exhaust gas fed to and as seen by the turbine volute inlet is uniform. Yet, it is desirable that the radial velocity distribution of exhaust gases entering the turbine volute be of a free vortex distribution. The vortex transition duct of this invention transforms the uniform radial velocity distribution of the exhaust gases, prior to their entry into the turbine volute inlet, into a free vortex distribution. |
