Abstract

A turbine stator blade (21) includes a pressure side (21P) extending in a radial direction intersecting a flow direction of steam, and facing upstream in the flow direction. A slit (5) extending in the radial direction and capturing a liquefied component of the steam is formed on a downstream side of the pressure side (21P). A hydrophilic uneven region (6) having a liquid film capacity greater than that of the pressure side (21P) by being recessed in a depth direction intersecting the pressure side (21P) is formed in a further upstream position than the slit (5). The hydrophilic uneven region (6) has a depth in the depth direction increasing and a flow resistance decreasing toward downstream and toward the slit (5).
