Abstract
The construction, testing and evaluation of Mr. Friedrich Schmidt's invention of a folding blade water turbine was undertaken at Stevens Institute of Technology. Although overall measured efficiency was low, the folding wing action resulted in a significant advantage when compared to operation of the device with wings locked in the open position. Recommendations for further developmnet and future investigation of the device are also made. (A)
