98 V6 EX alternator whine...

Changed the battery in my 98 V6 EX Accord a couple of weeks ago. Since then I have had a whine comming from the Alternator. Sounds like the whine you get when the alt is trying to charge a dead battery. The car starts ok every time but the Alternator is very HOT to the touch.. I measured the voltage at the battery when running and it is 11.95 volts ..too low. When the car is shut off the voltage goes up to 12.5 volts which seems normal. Think I have an Alternator or a battery problem?
Thanks
