Moving-particle semi-implicit (MPS) method is a new mesh-free numerical method based on Lagrangian
particle. In this paper, MPS method is applied to the study on numerical wave tank. For the purpose of simulating
numerical wave, we combine the MPS method with large eddy simulation (LES) which can simulate the turbulence
in the flow. The intense pressure fluctuation is a significant shortcoming in MPS method. So, we improve the
original MPS method by using a new pressure Poisson equation to ease the pressure fluctuation. Divergencefree
condition representing fluid incompressible is used to calculate pressure smoothly. Then, area-time average
technique is used to deal with the calculation. With these improvements, the modified MPS-LES method is
applied to the simulation of numerical wave. As a contrast, we also use the original MPS-LES method to simulate
the wave in a numerical wave tank. The result shows that the new method is better than the original MPS-LES method.
