The major challenges for the design studies and the later operation are related to high-intensity, low beam loss operation for a wide range of ion species and charge states, for different operational cycles and extraction schemes. We focus our simulation studies on the long (up to 1 s) accumulation plateau and on the final bunch compression before extraction. During accumulation emittance growth and beam loss due to transverse space charge in combination with the magnet field errors has to be well controlled. We use different simulation approaches with frozen and self-consistent "symplectic" space charge solvers to identify optimum working point areas, including realistic field error models for the superconducting, superferric SIS100 dipole and quadrupole magnets.
