    Numerical method based upon the Riemann problem is considered for solving the general initial-value problem for the Euler equations applied to real gases. The method is applied to detonation products obeying a 5th order virial equation of state, in the shock-tube test case. Comparisons between our solver, as implemented in random choice method, and finite difference methods, which do not employ a Riemann solver, are given.
