A calorifier produces hot water, not steam, whilst a steam generator obviously produces steam
The primary difference between a pressurized water reactor (PWR) and a boiling water reactor (BWR) is that in the BWR, water is actually boiled, and the steam is used to drive a steam turbine, while in the PWR, the primary coolant is not allowed to boil, but is circulated in a closed loop to boil water in a steam generator. The BWR circulates primary coolant through the steam turbine in a closed loop. The PWR contains the primary coolant in a loop that includes the steam generator, and not the steam turbine.
Heat from a controlled nuclear reaction heats water into steam. The steam turns a turbine, which is attached to a generator. The generator then makes electricity.
The vast majority of power stations heat water to form high pressure steam. This steam is used to drive a turbine which in turn drives a generator. The generator outputs electricity!
It is the difference between the saturation temperature corresponding to the steam inlet pressure of feed water heater and it's outlet temperature.
A turbine.
The water heater has an electric heating element that is responsible to make the water hot if submerged to water. While the Calorifier is composed of steam coil where the steam from boiler passes through, is responsible to make the water hot if it get contact to the steam coil.
boiler use many type of working fluids like water, Mercury, liquid sodium, etc., but steam generator works only with water as working fluid. hence all steam generator are boilers but all boilers are not steam generators...

It takes pressurized steam to move the Pistons in a steam train. It takes a generator to produce electricity to power the motors on his (trucks) wheels on an electric train.

In a way. It is the difference between temperatures at the inlet and outlet of the steam turbine (generically, a 'heat engine') which results in the turbine spinning -this, in turn, causes the generator to spin.
Generator
calorifier contains the number of coils through which steam flows. Steam from steam boiler goes to kitchen,laundry and for calorifier.Around these steam coils,water is flowing which needs to be heated. as u know temp of steam would be more than 100 deg,it heats the water which comes in contact with these coils . in most of the calorifiers,a set point mechanism is fitted which cuts the flow of steam whenrequired temp of water has attained
water is a liquid, steam is a gas
You say a steam generator. The equipment is actually a steam driven turbine coupled to a generator. Steam from the thermal source, either fossil fired or nuclear, drives the turbine which is mechanically coupled to the generator which produces the electrical output
The source of the thermal energy is obviously completely different, but the steam side, turbo-generator, etc is very similar.
They are used together to make hydroelectricity.
