Has anyone ever built a model of a de Laval turbine? I mean one with a

Or do you know of a good text about them? Most are either too simple or
they're too abstract on the engineering theory side.

I'd like to build a model of one, but not just a steam windmill. g I'd
like to have some real de Laval nozzles on it.

Thanks to any steamers who know about these motors.

Thanks, Dave. I'm collecting a good set of references here. I have them all
saved for the next rainy weekend.
