Results of measurements of diverted plasma parameters in several stellarator type devices (Heliotron E, Saturn, Uragan-2, Uragan-3, Uragan-3M) are analyzed. A diverted plasma flow distribution appears to depend not only on the magnetic configuration properties but on confined plasma parameters, methods of plasma heating, the level of edge turbulence, etc. In some cases it turns possible to elucidate the factors affecting strong inhomogeneity of diverted plasma flows.
