When a turbine comes to rest, after operating, the cooler denser steam tends to collect in the lower half of the cylinder and makes the lower half of the rotor cool quicker than the upper half. This causes the shaft to hog(bend upwards). When at rest and cool, the shaft will begin to sag under its own weight. If the turbine shaft is not rotated, hogging, especially above a critical temperature, can become permanent and the shaft would have to be sent to the manufacturer for heat treatment and straightening. 1, record 7, English, - hogging

Lors du ralentissement d'une turbine occasionné par un arrêt de production, la vapeur plus froide et plus dense s'accumule dans la moitié inférieure du boîtier. En conséquence, la moitié inférieure du rotor refroidit plus rapidement que sa partie supérieure ce qui cause un fléchissement vers le haut de l'axe de la turbine. Par contre, l'arbre d'une turbine au repos et refroidie commencera à s'affaisser sous son propre poids. À une température supérieure à un point critique, si l'on ne tourne pas l'arbre de la turbine, le fléchissement vers le haut pourra devenir permanent. 1, record 7, French, - fl%C3%A9chissement%20vers%20le%20haut

Technique in which the mobile phase(fluid) is maintained at temperatures somewhat above its critical point. The mobile phases used in SFC are gases such as freon, ethylene, or carbon dioxide. It has superior solution properties and enhances the chromatographic separation of higher molecular weight compounds. The column packings used in SFC are the same as those used in HPLC. 2, record 13, English, - supercritical%20fluid%20chromatography

The weight of the skier(not the height) is the critical factor in achieving an effective stride. A light or weak-kicking skier on a stiff-cambered ski will merely slip helplessly like a dog on a newly waxed floor. That's why beginners should not buy super-stiff double-cambered skis.
