Methods of mathematical analysis for defining and numerically computing reliability of warship propulsion plants at design stage and in service; reliability of main propulsion plants (steam turbine) of destroyer escorts of Royal Canadian Navy DDE 205, 206 and 257 Classes is computed, based on failures considered significant, in 14 ships, over 3 yr of operation; requirement is outlined for further development of reliability analysis to improve effectiveness of method.
