Best Answer

Steam engine is a device that transforms thermal energy into mechanical energy.

An internal combustion engine (I.C Engine) can transform thermal energy into mechanical energy.

In nuclear power plant also the heat energy released is used to turn the turbine and thus thermal energy is converted into mechanical energy of rotation of turbine.

This mechanical energy of turbine is further converted into electrical energy in generator.
