A collocation spectral scheme is used to compute inviscid supersonic high temperature flow in diverging nozzles. In order to include the real gas effects of high temperature air, chemical equilibrium is implemented via Tannehill et al. correlations. The proposed method is used for numerical simulation of internal inviscid flow of air in quasi one-dimensional and two-dimensional forms. Chebyshev spectral method is applied to the governing equations in order to discritize spatial differentiation terms and an explicit four stage Runge-Kutta method is chosen for time integration. The equations in primitive formulation are modified to include real gas effects. The effects of equilibrium or...
