This is an annotated translation from German of Untersuchung einer nach den Euler'schen Vorschlagen (1754) gebauten Wasserturbine [Investigation of a water turbine built according to Euler's proposals (1754)] that reports the tests results of a modern (1944) prototype of the so-called Segner-Euler turbine, which was strictly constructed according to Euler's prescription as laid down in E222 -- Theorie plus complete des machines qui sont mises en mouvement par la reaction de l'eau. (Memoires de l'academie des sciences de Berlin 1756, Vol. 10, pp. 227-295.), showing the feasibility of Euler's original proposal. A reproduction of the original paper is attached at the end of the translation.
