Hydroelectricity power source as one of the reliable and renewable energy. In India around 12% of electricity production contributed by hydropower. Due to rapid increase in urbanization, global warming and oil crisis increases. For this need advanced renewable energy extraction technique to meet the global demand. Nowadays at transportation sector electrical vehicles enter to market more and more. To meet the power demand open canals water turbine provides a major contribution locally. Open canals water turbine not require high civil structural work, it can be installed with small modification of existing infrastructure. This turbine installed in open canals and safer from any flood or storm damage condition. Thus, research aims at designing a hydrokinetic turbine applicable to zero head and low velocity flow water bodies such as canals. Open canals water turbine CFD simulation has been performed to predict the flow pattern of water. Additionally power was generated from the optimized design model in lab conditions (Ogee weir channel) wherein the flow velocity was less ranging from 0.02-0.05m/s and the turbine rotated within a range of 14-16 rpm. With further consideration in design and implementation gear box higher power can be achieved when implemented on a large canal’s or channels.
