Here's my realisation of the paddle wheel heat generator(idea I got from Gary Johnson's book)

This is the low-tec equivalent of Ed's realisation.
In my 15 liter drum I got 6watt at 120 rpm.(I did determine it with a dynamometer,see the posting for this:http://www.fieldlines.com/story/2006/11/7/202828/758)
Scaling it up to a 100 liter drum maybe you can get a few hundreds of watts at 100rpm.

cheers,
stonebrain
