The aim of this paper is to discuss the flat covers of injective modules over a Noetherian ring. Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring and let E be an injective R-module. We prove that the flat cover of E is isomorphic to $∏_{p∈ Att_{R}(E)} T_{p}$. As a consequence, we give an answer to Xu's question [10, 4.4.9]: for a prime ideal p, when does $T_{p}$ appear in the flat cover of E(R/m̲)?
