According to the plant control device of this invention, based on a modified target value candidate of a control output, a reference governor uses a prediction model in which a closed loop system including a plant and a feedback controller are modeled to sequentially calculate, across a finite prediction horizon, a predicted value of state quantities of a plant including a specific state quantity on which a constraint is imposed. At such time, if a predicted value of a specific state quantity relating to a certain modified target value candidate conflicts with a constraint, the reference governor excludes the modified target value candidate from candidates for a final modified target value. Thus, the computational load required to modify a target value of a control output is decreased while ensuring the satisfiability of a constraint. |
