Abstract: A stator blade of an embodiment includes: a blade effective part having hollow portions; an outer shroud having an outer plate flange portion provided on a radial-direction outer side of the blade effective part, and a pair of outer mounting portions provided in a circumferential direction on a front edge side and a rear edge side; an inner shroud having an inner plate flange portion provided on a radial-direction inner side of the blade effective part; cooling medium introduction passages which introduce a cooling medium via opening portions formed in the outer plate flange portion and passing through the outer plate flange portion in a radial direction, to the hollow portions; and a cooling medium introduction passage formed in a direction along a surface of the outer plate flange portion in a wall thickness of the outer plate flange portion, which introduces a cooling medium to the hollow portion.

Abstract: An axial fan which includes a hub portion having the rotational center thereof and blades arranged on the outer periphery of the hub portion is equipped with a thickness reinforcing portion which extends from the joint portion between the blade front edge portion of the blade and the hub portion to the outer periphery of the blade along the blade front edge and whose width and thickness are smaller as the distance from the rotational center of the hub portion is larger. There is achieved an arc corresponding to the overlap portion between the blade and a circle of a first radius which passes from the blade front edge side of the blade to the blade rear edge side and has as the center thereof any reference point displaced from the rotational center on a plane vertical to the rotational axis of the hub portion and the blade.

Furthermore, the axial fan is equipped with an additional blade. There is achieved an arc corresponding to the overlap portion between the blade and a circle of a first radius which passes from the blade front edge side of the blade to the blade rear edge side and has as the center thereof any reference point displaced from the rotational center on a plane vertical to the rotational axis of the hub portion and the blade.
