Gas turbine nozzle
The present invention provides a gas turbine nozzle capable of reducing stress related to thermal elongation caused by a rise in gas turbine nozzle temperature and thus reducing stress produced when thermal deformation occurs in the gas turbine nozzle. The gas turbine nozzle according to the present invention includes nozzles formed integrally through an inner perimeter end wall and an outer perimeter end wall. The inner perimeter end wall has an upstream connection portion and a downstream connection portion. The upstream connection portion extends radially inward to be connected to an inner perimeter diaphragm. The downstream connection portion is located downstream from the upstream connection portion and extends radially inward to be connected to the inner perimeter diaphragm. The inner perimeter end wall has a thin-walled portion in a rear edge portion of the inner perimeter end wall, the thin-walled portion corresponding to a reduced wall thickness portion of the rear edge portion of the inner perimeter end wall.
