In the paper entitled ‘An improved free surface capturing method based on Cartesian cut cell mesh for water-entry and -exit problems’ (Proc. R. Soc. A465, 1843–1868 (doi:10.1098/rspa.2008.0410)), the present authors' earlier work (,Proc. R. Soc. A462, 21–42 (doi:10.1098/rspa.2005.1528)) has been specifically applied to the study of water-entry and -exit of solid objects. An extended boundary condition, retaining the term owing to acceleration of moving boundaries in the momentum equation, has been implemented for calculating the pressure gradient at solid surfaces and, based on their numerical experiments, it was concluded by Wang and Wang that without this term the calculation will substantially under-predict the impact forces and may even break down. Therefore, a more complex procedure based on the exact solution of a Riemann problem for moving boundaries was implemented. In this short comment, by applying the authors' free surface capturing code to the same flow problem of water-entry of a wedge, it can, however, be demonstrated that the results from implementing the new pressure boundary condition are nearly identical to that of employing the original boundary condition without the acceleration term, indicating that its effects on the simulation results are minimal. A further examination of the implementation details on the pressure boundary condition also supports this conclusion.
