Employs inviscid, 2-D method of characteristics for rectangular cross-sections to develop geometry for the diverging section of a supersonic nozzle.
The code presented here was used to develop nozzle geometry for a supersonic wind tunnel, which has been fabricated, tested, and verified.

Note: Non-physical geometry presents when the too many Mach waves are specified. This is thought to be the result of the more extreme slope that results from specifying a greater number of Mach lines.
