Abstract
The present invention relates to a waterpower stream amplifier device primarily comprised of a body with an outer surface further comprised of at least one exterior protrusion and an interior surface further comprised of at least one angular flow director. The device can be placed/combined with the rotor of an underwater hydroelectric turbine in order to concentrate and multiple the energy of the water stream entering the turbine. The at least one angular flower director of the interior surface, the at least one exterior protrusions and at least one longitudinal opening of the outer surface allows water to enter the interior surface of the body from all directions. As a result, a rotating water vortex is created within the interior surface as the water travels from the first end towards the second end.
