  The European Spallation Source, to be built in Lund, Sweden, will be based on a superconducting proton linac. Top-level linac parameters of 2.5 GeV energy, 50 mA pulse current, 14 Hz pulse repetition rate and 2.86 ms pulse length result in 5 MW average beam power and 125 MW peak power. General challenges for the accelerator design and construction range from minimizing beam losses to prototyping, manufacturing and installing the large quantity of RF power soures. The presentation will give an overview of the ESS project and give specific examples of computational challenges related to the beam dynamics of the linac.
