There is a lot of potential in Barangay San Marcelino Dingras, Ilocos Norte, to use cross-flow hydro-powered turbines to harness the plentiful water flows to produce electricity. This study focused on the design and evaluation of cross-flow hydro-powered turbine on run-off rivers to generate electricity, particularly benefiting remote areas with limited access to urban power grids. The research focused on the design of turbine, propeller positioning, and evaluating performance parameters such as voltage, power, current, and generator speed. The study’s primary components were direct current motor and transmission systems, with multi-testers in measuring variables. Findings revealed that the turbine was more functional when 1/3 of the diameter of the propeller were submerged resulted to 46 rpm in no-load category. The highest water velocity of 3.82 m/s yielded 28.78 volts, with the turbine producing a maximum of 59.4212 watts at 5198.1 rpm and generating 4.48 amperes with connected loads. In summary, increased water velocity led to greater motor rotation and voltage. Load connection directly influenced current and power output. The study, costing ₱15,655.00, concluded that the turbine is effective for small-scale applications like lighting. Finally, it shows the possibility for producing electricity in an environmentally friendly and fuel-free manner, which is important for regions having irrigation canals or streams. If this technology is successfully applied, it may considerably lessen reliance on conventional energy sources and save home electricity bills.
