A hypergravity experimental apparatus and method for natural gas hydrate exploitation by hydraulic fracturing are provided. A high-pressure vessel contains a hydrate reservoir model placed in a water bath environment connected to a water bath temperature control module. An effective stress control module applies stress control. A fracturing reinforcement exploitation module conducts fracturing, reinforcement, and exploitation experiments. A model multi-physical field monitoring module performs monitoring. A hydrate preparation module communicates with the high-pressure vessel. The high-pressure vessel, the effective stress control module, and the fracturing reinforcement exploitation module are all under hypergravity, and the hydrate preparation module and the water bath temperature control module are under normal gravity.
