abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">In this work, we introduce the mathematical analysis of the optimal control for
the Navier-Stokes system coupled with the energy equation and a $\kappa$-$\omega$ turbulence model. While
the optimal control of the Navier-Stokes system has been widely studied in past works, only a
few works are based on the analysis of the turbulent flows. Moreover, the optimal control of
turbulent buoyant flows are usually not taken into account due to the difficulties arising from the
analysis and the numerical implementation of the optimality system. We first prove the existence
of the solution of the boundary value problem associated with the studied system. Then we
use an optimization method that relies on the Lagrange multiplier formalism to obtain the first-order necessary condition for optimality. We derive the optimality system and we solve it using a
gradient descent algorithm that allows uncoupling state, adjoint, and optimality conditions. Some
numerical results are then reported to validate the presented theoretical analysis.</p>},
