Abstract
A short theoretical presentation of graphical-analytical methods used for the analysis of system predictive reliability is given. This includes a reliability equivalent diagram, fault tree, events tree, table of true, minimal cuts, and minimal success paths.. Case studies related to the assessment of predictive reliability of heat pumps using the above mentioned methods are also discussed.
