A simple test is to start the engine and let it run at idle. Connect a digital multimeter set to 20 volts DC to the battery. Red to + and black to -. If the alternator is good you will read from 13.5 to 15.5 volts. This tells you allot but is not a definitive test. To test it completely drive to your local auto parts store and have then test it under load. Most will do this for free.

Which is the maximum efficiency machine between Alternator and Transformer?
the efficiency of transformer is more than alternator, because 1- the alternator have friction and windage loss but in transformer this not occure. 2- in the alternator the flux leak is more than the transformer, because in case of alternator the flux move through the air which is dimagnet and in transformer flux move through silicon steel. 3- in the other hand alternator have dc compound generator for exciation (depend on other electric course 220volt) but in t/f is not need.
