This 35-page report is a handwritten history and evaluation of the De Laval reaction turbine. It includes 11 diagrams, including rotor [design] and buckets, bucket details, a heat chart showing friction losses, a section of the nozzle, theoretical and actual velocity diagrams, the design of the bucket, governor details, the reducing gearing, the standard machine, and a chart showing the results of the tests conducted. While the author of this report is not known, it may have been created by John William Cox, who received his bachelor's degree in civil engineering from North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts in 1915. Cox also received a master's degree in civil engineering from the college in 1921.
