As this flow velocity distribution shows, the flow velocity in the radial direction Dr at a position close to the downstream groove side surface 25 in the axial direction Da is extremely large. Further, in the comparative example, the flow velocity in the radial direction Dr suddenly decreases as the flow velocity value shifts from the maximum position to the position upstream of the axis Dau.
