Abstract: An apparatus including an internal combustion engine receiving air from an air particle separator is disclosed. The air particle separator has an air intake capable of receiving air and a particulate matter conveyed by the air, the particle separator being capable of filtering the particulate matter from the air to produce a clean flow and a dirty flow. The clean flow is provided to the inlet of the internal combustion engine. A bladed component is in fluid communication with the dirty flow and includes a plurality of members operable to assist the dirty flow in being conveyed from the particle separator. The bladed component rotates about an axis and has an annular construction disposed radially outward of the plurality of members configured to receive a circumferential force to cause the bladed component to rotate about the axis.
