A turbine wheel designed to exploit the head of watercourses that operates partially or totally submerge with means for a wheel mounting enclosure having a cavity equal to 50% of the height of the runner where the runner rest exposing the upper end into the bed of the flowing body of water and said cavity mask the runner from the water incident flow allowing the wheel to perform fully submerged gaining its power and momentum through water current acting upon an array of multifaceted cells attached to spokes radiating from a central circular body member to the outer perimeter of a wheel, distributed wall-to-wall occupying the peripheral annulus of the water stream always presenting a new facet as it rotate around it axis covering 180 degrees of the water incident flow. The outside surface of the runner attaches to a multiplicity of similar runners by means of mechanical devices and to the central circular body member. The plurality of cells ensures the wheel remains constantly engage with the incoming water flow which causes it to rotate. The kinetic energy stored in the wheel while rotating is harnessed through a drive shaft connected to the central circular body member that connects to a generator placed perpendicular to the central circular body member. The apparatus can be used in multiple environments with a multiplicity of water currents able to generate electricity from the kinetic energy contained therein.
