Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A turbine assembly comprising a housing comprising first and second volutes which define a respective first and second flow passage. A circumferential outlet portion of each volute is defined by first and second tongues. The housing further comprises a first aperture in which a vane assembly is received. The vane assembly comprises a plurality of vanes circumferentially distributed about a turbine wheel-receiving bore, each vane comprising a leading edge and a trailing edge. Each vane has a fixed orientation. The vanes comprise a first vane and a second vane. The first vane having its leading edge disposed in closest proximity to a tip of the first tongue. The second vane having its leading edge disposed in closest proximity to a tip of the second tongue. The leading edge of each vane at least partly overlaps the tip of the proximate tongue circumferentially.
