In this paper, we develop a numerical method to solving an optimal control problem, which is governed by a parabolic partial differential equations(PDEs). Our approach is to approximate the PDE problem to initial value problem(IVP) in $mathbb{R}$. Then, the homogeneous part of IVP is solved using semigroup theory. In the next step, the convergence of this approach is verified by properties of one-parameter semigroup theory. In the rest of paper, the original optimal control problem is solved by utilizing the solution of homogeneous part. Finally one numerical example is given.
