Abstract
A control device estimates a flow rate and an effective height difference of a fluid machine based on a characteristic detectable with regard to a rotating electrical machine and correlating with the flow rate and the effective height difference of the fluid machine. A total flow rate in a pipe system is estimated based on these values estimated by the control device and a flow resistance characteristic line, and cooperative control of the fluid machine and the flow rate control valve is performed such that the estimated value of the total flow rate becomes close to a target flow rate of the total flow rate in the pipe system.
