Claim Text:
1. A turbine using CO 2 as working fluid and coolant, comprising: a rotor; a plurality of moving blades arranged along an axis of the rotor; a plurality of stator blades constituting a plurality of turbine stages together with the plurality of moving blades; a working fluid transport flow path configured to transport the working fluid sequentially to the plurality of turbine stages; a coolant transport flow path configured to transport the coolant by allowing the coolant to sequentially pass through the inside of the plurality of stator blades from an upstream to a downstream of the working fluid; a plurality of holding members configured to hold the plurality of stator blades respectively, the holding members having a gap between each other; a pair of seal plates connecting the plurality of holding members and facing each other to seal the gap from a predetermined direction; and a coolant recovery flow path passing through the gap surrounded by the holding members and the seal plates, the coolant recovery being configured to recover the coolant passing through the inside of the stator blade at a predetermined turbine stage and merge the recovered coolant with the working fluid transport flow path at a turbine stage on an upstream side of the predetermined turbine stage.
