Mechanical work is generated by the expansion of steam.
To make steam, to turn a generator.
To drive a steam turbine which is coupled to an electrical generator
The nuclear reactor produces heat which is used to raise steam to feed a steam turbine/generator set
steam powers a turbine which drives a generator to produce electrical power
The best place to purchase a steam powered generator would be online at www.greensteamengine.com. The website is very valuable to show the advantages of going with steam power.
Steam power is more efficient.
A steam turbine/generator in a power station, a small gasoline powered generator, or a 12v alternator in your car driven by the engine.

Generators are nearly always used for nuclear power, and sometimes used for solar power. In nuclear power plants, the reactor makes steam to run a generator. Much of solar produced electricity does not use a generator, but produces power through a photovoltaic effect. Concentrated solar can be used to make steam to run a generator.
To convert the heat of combustion to steam which can be used in an engine.
Yes. Steam is produced in a steam generator (boiler), used to power an engine (or turbine), condensed, and returned to the boiler as feedwater.
No It has heat recovery steam generator
