Results from statistical simulation of damages to the tube systems of the condensers and high-pressure heaters used in steam-turbine units are presented. The flow of failures of high-pressure heaters is described, using which their failure rates are estimated, and data are given that allow measures to be recommended on improving the system of maintenance activities for these apparatuses.
