The conceptual design of the High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) generator for Mobile Radar applications is described. Its power system is composed of a generator, power conditioning electronics and a diesel engine. The cryogenic cooling of the generator and the power electronics result in substantial improvements in performance, system efficiency and power density. The total losses and efficiency are presented.
