What is the difference between generator and turbo-generator

Answer Posted / raghu singh

A turbo generator is a turbine directly connected to an electric generator for the generation of electric power.

An electric generator is a device that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy. A generator forces electric charge (usually carried by electrons) to flow through an external electrical circuit. It is analogous to a water pump, which causes water to flow (but does not create water).
