WHO WE ARE
Wetzel
Engineering provides services through a team of employees, consultants and
subcontractors, several of whom each individually possess decades of
experience in the design, fabrication, testing, and certification of
structural, mechanical, electrical, and aerodynamic systems.
We also
maintain on-going relationships with two highly regarded materials testing
laboratories, as well as machine shops and composite fabricators.
This team approach allows us to offer our clients a
"one-stop shopping" source for all of their wind turbine design,
testing, and evaluation services for the entire wind turbine system without
having to contract multiple consultants. We can perform the system integration
and avoid the incompatibilities which result from using multiple
subcontractors.
We can also provide extensive aerodynamic and structural design
services for aerospace and defense systems, including both internal and
external aerodynamics.
The company's founder and President,
Dr. Kyle K. Wetzel, has engineered state-of-the-art wind energy, aerospace, and
defense systems since 1993. Dr. Wetzel
has extensive experience in both aerodynamic and structural design, hardware
fabrication, and testing, as well as full wind turbine system integration, dynamic
simulation, and power performance estimation and testing.
