Best Answer

Typically by varying the magnetic field strength. This is done by varying the current flow through the field windings. It is usually accomplished by a voltage regulator circuit.

What is the difference between alternators and dynamos?

Alternators produce AC, which is rectified by diodes if DC is needed. Dynamos produce DC by using a commutator.


When 2 alternators are connected in parallel what is the resultant terminal voltage of the two alternators?

Since the alternators are in parallel, the resultant voltage should be the same as either alternator - exactly as it would be if two batteries are connected in parallel. Voltage remains the same but current capacity is doubled. I would recommend connecting the alternators through a network that will balance the load between them.
