PURPOSE: To execute estimation processing equivalent to that during normal operation even when the detecting result of a throttle opening sensor is not provided. CONSTITUTION: In an estimation device for an intake air amount, the trouble of a throttle opening sensor is detected by an Fail detecting part 100. When a trouble occurs, a present openingθTH is estimated by an alternate value setting part 101 based on a number of revolutions Ne of an engine and an intake pressure Pb, and the value is set as an alternate valueθTH'. A value of the throttle openingθTH is then replaced with the alternate valueθTH' by a switching part 102.
