The max voltage should be 14.4 volts

your alternator is poorly.
14.4 is ideal charging voltage but in automotive applications it’s nearer to 15v as it ensures the cells are equlised the absolute maximun is 16.2v.
the alternator should be able to hold it’s output voltage constant over it’s rated output if not it’s broken.

yes, but above 14.4 volts the battery begins to boil & lose fluid.
