Turboexpander and control method

This application provides a turbo expander and its control method, relating to the field of expander technology. The expander body has a fluid channel, with an inlet pipe connected to the inlet end of the fluid channel and an outlet pipe connected to the outlet end of the fluid channel. A first information acquisition component is installed on the inlet pipe to collect fluid parameters, and a second information acquisition component is installed on the outlet pipe to collect fluid parameters. Multiple nozzle blades are disposed in the fluid channel near the inlet end and are movably connected to the expander body. Adjacent nozzle blades form nozzles through which fluid flows. The nozzle blades move relative to the expander body based on the information collected by the first and second information acquisition components to adjust the nozzle opening. By adjusting the nozzle opening according to fluid parameters to control the fluid flow rate, the fluid flow rate entering the expander's fluid channel can be precisely controlled.
