The life of piping elements was assessed and predicted with regard to operating conditions. Prediction estimates of residual life for defective piping systems used in heat-power engineering were obtained on the basis of fracture mechanics approaches. The negative influence of anthropogenic impurities in feed water media on the piping life was shown.
