Abstract
A control device controls movement of a valve body of a valve device and estimates a flow rate of the valve device; determines, on the basis of an input target flow rate value and the flow rate estimate, whether or not the flow of an operating fluid in the valve device is in a transient flow state; calculates an opening command on the basis of the target flow rate value and an upstream-downstream pressure difference of the valve device; and controls the movement of the valve body. When the control device determines that the flow is not in the transient flow state, it controls the movement of the valve body on the basis of the opening command, and when the control determines that the flow is in the transient flow state, it controls the movement of the valve body on the basis of the target flow rate value.
