A procedure to find optimal regimes for quantum thermal engines (QTMs) is described and demonstrated. The
QTMs are modelled as the periodically-driven non-equilibrium steady states of open quantum systems, whose
dynamics is approximated in this work with Markovian master equations. The action of the external agent and
the couplings to the heat reservoirs can be modulated with control functions, and it is the time-dependent shape
of these control functions the object of optimisation. Those functions can be freely parameterised, which permits
to constrain the solutions according to experimental or physical requirements
