The existing 200MeV linac of Hefei Light Source (HLS) mainly consists of electron gun, prebuncher, buncher, one 3m S-band linac section, and four 6m S-band linac sections. Energy gain of electron beam at the end of the linac is 200MeV and energy spread is ±0.8%. In order to improve the electron beam quality, An upgrade project is required. Four 80MW klystrons will be used to instead the old ones, which can improve the beam energy stability. This upgrade can also make it possible to increase the linac energy from 200 MeV to 400 MeV without changing the accelerating structure. In the meantime, New operation modes of HLS linac has been found by extensive computer modelling and optimization. Electron beam dynamics simulation from electron gun to the end of linac has been given, which considering space charge effects and wakefields.
