Like a generator, an alternator uses a magnetic field to convert mechanical motion into electricity. Unlike a generator, however, it actually spins the magnetic field itself inside a wrapped wire called a stator. A dynamo, on the other hand, spins the stator inside a magnetic field. Alternators are able to put out more energy and run more efficiently, and they require none of the polarization of a generator.
