ABSTRACT:
A turbine system utilizes the ebb and flow of the natural movements of tidal wave action to generate power. Waves are allowed to enter and exit from a chamber while at the top of the chamber a narrow exit allows for air flow into an out of the chamber is response to the water flow. A turbine placed in line with the air flow has pivoting blades that allows the turbine to rotate in one direction is response to the varying air pressures. This rotating turbine can be used to produce electrical power. An additional feature is an adjustable strike disc that limits the pivoting action of the turbine blades.
