Abstract

To provide a method of controlling a turbine equipment and a turbine equipment capable of carrying out a starting operation of controlling a load applied to a speed reducing portion while complying with a restriction imposed on an apparatus provided at a turbine equipment. The invention is characterized in including a speed accelerating step (S1) of increasing a revolution number by driving to rotate a compressing portion and a turbine portion by a motor by way of a speed reducing portion, a load detecting step (S2) of detecting a load applied to the speed reducing portion by a load detecting portion, and a bypass flow rate controlling step (S3) of increasing a flow rate of a working fluid bypassed from a delivery side to a suction side of the compressing portion when an absolute value of the detected load is equal to or smaller than an absolute value of a predetermined value and reducing the flow rate of the bypassed working fluid when equal to or larger than the absolute value of the predetermined value.
