I think the water, coarsing across the outer surface of turbine would obviously cause turbine rotation, & place centripetal forces, upon rotational axis of turbine.

Could this directed energy, at axis, be drawn from, reducing any possible frictional loss & wear 'n tear, upon axle ?

Would interior water flow, reduce the rotation, due the opposing centrifugal forces ?

Or, could some balance, be found, such that would smooth out rotation, to a soundless pitch ?

Centrifugal: radial lines of vectored force, at circle periphery, moving towards center.

Centrifugal: opposite.
