contents This paper investigates the local exponential stabilization of the two-dimensional Navier--Stokes equations to a given reference trajectory by means of receding horizon control (RHC). The control is realized as a linear combination of finitely many actuators, represented by indicator functions supported on subsets of a prescribed control subdomain. We establish local exponential stabilizability and suboptimality for the resulting RHC scheme. Numerical experiments for two flow configurations of increasing complexity illustrate the theoretical findings and assess the practical performance of the method. In addition, we propose a model-order-reduced RHC approach based on proper orthogonal decomposition, which significantly reduces the computational cost while maintaining favorable closed-loop stabilization performance in the numerical experiments.
