Difference between Electric generator and Steam engine

Electric generator vs. Steam engine

In electricity generation, a generator is a device that converts motive power (mechanical energy) into electrical power for use in an external circuit. A steam engine is a heat engine that performs mechanical work using steam as its working fluid.

Similarities between Electric generator and Steam engine

Electric generator and Steam engine have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Combined cycle, Electric generator, Electric motor, Electric power, Electricity generation, Gas turbine, Internal combustion engine, Power station, Rankine cycle, Steam turbine.

Combined cycle

In electric power generation a combined cycle is an assembly of heat engines that work in tandem from the same source of heat, converting it into mechanical energy, which in turn usually drives electrical generators.
