A slotted turbine static nozzle airfoil (2). In one embodiment, the turbine static nozzle airfoil (2) includes a concave pressure wall (8) having a slot (6) extending therethrough; a convex suction wall (4) adjoined with the concave pressure wall (8) at respective end joints (10); and a pocket (12) fluidly connected with the slot (6) and located between the convex suction wall (4) and the concave pressure wall (8), wherein at least one of the convex suction wall (4) or the concave pressure wall (8) includes a thinned segment (14) proximate one of the respective end joints (10), the thinned segment (14) configured to extend the pocket (12) toward a trailing edge (18) of the turbine static nozzle airfoil (2). |
