A '''dynamo''' is a [[direct current]] generator. Almost any [[commutator motor]] will act as a dynamo, provided that the stator field is maintained and the motor is spun at an acceptable speed.<ref>J. Cox - ''Electric motors'' 2nd ed. ISBN 978-1-85486-246-4 p. 117</ref>

-If there is a conducting fluid flowing in a circular pattern (e.g. a planet's iron core circulating with convention currents), moving thru a magnetic field, it will use the dynamo effect to start a current flowing.  This will generate a magnetic field.  Such planets moving thru the Sun's magnetic field generate their [[Magnetospheres]] this way.
