Aerotrope have over 30 years' experience in Wind Energy. We combine aerodynamics with structural composites design to optimize new and existing wind turbines.
We advise developers of small, medium and large scale wind turbines as well as manufacturers and owner-developers. We consult on one-bladed to multi-rotors, horizontal or vertical axis designs.
Our engineers advise on whole turbine & blade structural design, turbine blade fatigue life, blade condition monitoring, optimisation/ blade life extension, certification, composites fractography, composites & metallics, FEA static & dynamic analysis, load envelope calculations, flutter analysis, CFD & panel methods, materials & process down-selection, manufacturing drawings & process specification, vendor interaction & manufacturing oversight. We also offer patent generation & review, board level advisory and technical due diligence.
