In this paper, we study a feedback optimal control problem for the stochastic nonlocal Cahn–Hilliard–Navier–Stokes model in a two-dimensional bounded domain. The model consists of the stochastic Navier–Stokes equations for the velocity, coupled with a nonlocal Cahn-Hilliard system for the order (phase) parameter. We prove the existence of an optimal feedback control for the stochastic nonlocal Cahn–Hilliard-Navier-Stokes system. Moreover using the Galerkin approximation, we show that the optimal cost can be approximated by a sequence of finite dimensional optimal costs.
