In this study, 3-D nozzle shape and the shape of nozzle at exit plane were adopted as design parameter of 3-D supersonic nozzle and numerical analyses for these parameters have been performed to investigate the flow and performance characteristics for design parameters of the turbine. Firstly, comparing results for nozzle shape, rectangular nozzle had less total pressure loss occurred in axial gap and more power by 1.5% than circular nozzle did. Next, comparing the results for the shape of nozzle at exit plane, it is found that the performance of partial admission turbine was largely depended upon the gap between nozzle wall at exit plane and the hub / tip of rotor blade and the length between nozzles.
