WHAT DOES TURBOGENERATOR MEAN IN ENGLISH?

turbogenerator

Turbo generator

A turbo generator is the combination of a turbine directly connected to an electric generator for the generation of electric power. Large steam powered turbo generators provide the majority of the world's electricity and are also used by steam powered turbo-electric ships. Smaller turbo-generators with gas turbines are often used as auxiliary power units. For base loads diesel generators are usually preferred, since they offer better fuel efficiency, but on the other hand diesel generators have a lower power density and hence, require more space. The efficiency of larger gas turbine plants can be enhanced by using a combined cycle, where the hot exhaust gases are used to generate steam which drives another turbo generator.

Definition of turbogenerator in the English dictionary

The definition of turbogenerator in the dictionary is a large electrical generator driven by a steam turbine.
