Abstract: A final throat area of a gas turbine nozzle circumferential structure is established by providing at least two gas turbine nozzle vanes (42), and determining a pairwise initial throat area between each pair of gas turbine nozzle vanes (42). For each pair of gas turbine nozzle vanes (42) whose pairwise initial throat area is not within the final pairwise throat area target range, a trailing edge (50) of at least one of the gas turbine nozzle vanes (42) is extended responsive to the step of determining the initial pairwise throat area, so that a final pairwise throat area is within a final pairwise throat area target range. A nozzle plurality of pairs of gas turbine nozzle vanes (42) that together comprise the gas turbine nozzle circumferential structure may be selected so that a sum of their final pairwise throat areas is within a final total throat area target range. The trailing edge (50) may be extended for this or other purposes by affixing an extension wire (100) to the trailing edge (50) extending lengthwise along the trailing edge (50), applying a braze material (104) to the extension wire (100) and the trailing edge (50), and heating the braze material (104) to a brazing temperature to melt at least a portion of the braze material (104) and, upon cooling, to bond the extension wire (100) and the braze material (104) to the trailing edge (50).

Abstract: A method of locating nodes in train having at least one node per car and includes enabling each node; querying each enabled node to respond during a response interval; disabling each node which responded; and re-querying the enabled nodes until no further responses are received during a response interval. The method further includes disabling the responding nodes before the expiration of the response interval if the interval is under utilized and after the expiration of the response interval if the interval is fully utilized. The method further includes determining the number of responses during a present response interval and setting the length of a subsequent response interval as a function of the determined number of responses. The number of responses may be determined for a whole interval or for a portion of the present response interval, and the length of the subsequent response interval is set based on the response rate determined for the portion of the present response interval. The subsequent response interval may be initiated before the expiration of the present response interval if a new interval length is to be set.
