Abstract
A degradation estimation device includes a storage device and an execution device. The storage device is configured to store mapping data that defines a map that outputs an output variable indicating a degree of degradation of a seal member when an input variable is input. The map includes a thermal history variable and a load history variable as the input variable. The thermal history variable is a variable indicating a period during which the seal member has been exposed to a temperature within a predetermined temperature range. The load history variable is a variable indicating the number of times a load has acted on the seal member. The execution device is configured to perform an acquisition process of acquiring the input variable and a calculation process of outputting a value of the output variable by inputting the input variable acquired in the acquisition process to the map.
