Abstract: A solid fuel turbine drive system for utilizing waste coal products for environmentally friendly energy generation. The solid fuel turbine drive system includes an housing consisting of four side walls a roof and a floor, a first aperture extends through a first one of said side walls; a combustion tunnel with a first end which extends into the housing through the first aperture and a second end; a turbine assembly substantially aligned with the combustion tunnel first end such that gases being expelled from the first end turn the turbine assembly; and at least one solid fuel cell positionable within the second end of the combustion tunnel such that detonation of the solid fuel cell forces gasses out of the first end of the combustion tunnel.

Abstract: A magnetically augmented rotation system for improving the efficiency of drive wheel and prime mover efficiency. The magnetically augmented rotation system includes includes a wheel assembly having a central portion, a first magnetic assembly with a first magnetic polarity, and a second magnetic assembly having a second magnetic polarity opposite the polarity of the first magnetic assembly; a bearing assembly for facilitation the rotation of the wheel assembly and comprised of non-magnetic material; a magnetic biasing assembly positioned such that a torquing force is applied to the wheel assembly by an interaction between the magnetic biasing assembly and the first and second magnetic assemblies; and an anti-reversing gear assembly coupled to the wheel assembly allowing the magnetically augmented rotation system to rotate in a first direction while preventing it from rotating in a second direction.
