<center><big>'''Welcome to the School of Chemistry!'''</big></center>

A school is a large organizational structure which can contain various departments and divisions. The departments and divisions should be listed in the departments and divisions section. The school should not contain any learning resources. The school can contain [[Portal:Learning Projects|projects]] for developing [[Portal:Learning Materials|learning resources]].

==Divisions and Departments==
Divisions and Departments of the School exist on pages in "topic" namespace. Start the name of departments with the "Topic:" prefix; departments reside in the [[Wikiversity:Namespaces|Topic: namespace]]. Departments and divisions link to learning materials and learning projects. Divisions can link subdivisions or to departments. For more information on schools, divisions and departments look at the [[Wikiversity:Naming_conventions|Naming Conventions]].

</gallery>Algie Composite Aircraft is an [[aircraft kit]] company that is developing the LP1 kit. This is a high performance two seat [[aircraft]], featuring all [[carbon fiber]]/ [[Nomex]] [[honeycomb]] construction. Using modern composite fabrication techniques, it has an empty airframe weight at 210 LBS. It is designed for high altitude cruise flight at high speed, cruise is 385 MPH at 29,000 FT. The LP1 employs an [[elliptical wing]] planform for minimised induced drag. The engine used is the [[LS1]]/2/7 family of engines, basically stock except for a dry sump oiling system added. The engine's cruise RPM is kept to 3800 RPM, which the base LS1 produces about 300 HP at those revs. One of the unusual features of this design is it's cockpit [[pressurisation]] system. The cockpit is fed from a large [[turbocharger]], along with the engine. This turbo is capable of engine normalisation to FL300, and it has no cockpit pressure regulator, therefore the cockpit also is normalised to sea level pressure at this altitude, approx. 10 PSI differential. The cabin door is of a plug type design to withstand the 10 PSI internal pressure, it retracts upwards and into the cabin roof area. Another innovative design feature is the cooling system. The engine has two angular mounted [[radiators]] that reside behind the cockpit seatbacks. These are fed cooling air from a large bellypan mounted [[NACA duct]] below the cockpit. Integrally designed with the cooling system is the turbo/ [[wastegate]] exhaust, which serves to scavenge the radiator exit air by high energy excitation principles, accelerating the low energy exit air to close to the free stream speeds. This gives the system the potential to reduce cooling drag to very low levels.
