In electricity generation, an electric generator is a device that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy. A generator forces electric current to flow through an external circuit.
Electrical generator: A device for converting mechanical (kinetic) energy into electrical energy.
Motor is an example of converting electrical energy into mechanical energy
converting mechanical energy into electrical energy.
Electrical energy transforms into mechanical energy.
A dynamo generates electrical energy by converting mechanical energy into electrical energy through electromagnetic induction.
Assuming that you're talking about a wind-powered electrical generator (such as a "wind farm"), the energy conversion is from mechanical to electrical. When the wind blows on the blades of the mill it rotates them, creating mechanical energy. This mechanical energy is used to power the electrical generator inside the mill, creating electrical energy out of mechanical energy.
A dynamo is another name for an a.c. or d.c. electrical generator. They are used for converting mechanical energy into electrical energy.
A fan typically uses electrical energy to operate, converting it into mechanical energy to produce airflow.
An example of mechanical energy converting to electromagnetic energy is when a generator converts the kinetic energy from a spinning turbine (mechanical energy) into electrical energy (electromagnetic energy) through electromagnetic induction.
Electrical energy is transferred to mechanical energy when an electric motor is used. The electric motor uses the electrical energy to generate a magnetic field, which interacts with other magnetic fields to produce a rotating motion, thus converting electrical energy into mechanical energy.
