The present application includes a system for generating energy via a rotating drum. The system includes a housing, a drum, and a plurality of enclosed chambers. The housing surrounds the drum and helps to distinguish between a gravitational domain and a buoyancy domain. The drum is coupled to a shaft and configured to rotate within the housing about a central axis. The plurality of enclosed chambers are radially aligned around an internal surface of the drum. The drum is exposed to a gravitational domain and a buoyancy domain simultaneously so as to induce rotation of the drum around the shaft. The enclosed chambers are subjected to gravitational forces in the gravitational domain and the enclosed chambers are subjected to buoyancy forces in the buoyancy domain.

The present invention relates generally to facilities and systems capable of initiating and maintaining vertical flow, upward, within an extended-length water column by inducing changes in density throughout the column. Specifically, the induced (vertical) flow of water within an extended water column that is the present invention is accomplished through fluid aeration, with ambient air, which is directed toward producing ascending water flow rates sufficient to generate hydraulic pressure and hydraulic powered energy, through generated radial force in hydraulic turbines. It is another goal of this invention to utilize air infused water, derived from high-density and low depths, to create said vertical flow and induce turbine actuation through said unaltered, recyclable mediums—air and water—resulting in electrical power generation and desalination.

An electromagnetic turbine system includes a circulation system for recirculating fluid that drives turbine impellers for electromagnetic turbine modules.

A system and method of energy conversion using a mixture of a compressible gas and an incompressible liquid. Systems found in prior art do not convert all of the potential energy. Novel features of the system increase the conversion of the potential energy with a nozzle and turbine in the area where a mixture of incompressible liquid and compressed gas are separated. A turbine is at the exit of the nozzle, where the mixture contacts that turbine. A compressed gas displaces an incompressible liquid below the exit of the nozzle and location of the turbine. Another turbine can be prior to the nozzle to further increase conversion. A novel feature of the method combines waste heat with a compressed gas to increase potential output during expansion which includes driving a liquid pump that moves the incompressible liquid. External energy in waste heat or electricity is captured, converted, or stored.
