The beam dynamics code DYNAC is benchmarked using the ESS Proton Linac. Recent work on improvements in the code, including of the RFQ model, is discussed. The three space charge routines contained in DYNAC, including a 3D version, have remained unchanged. The code contains a numerical method, capable of simulating a multi-charge state ion beam in accelerating elements. In addition, protons, single charge state heavy ions and non-relativistic electrons in accelerating elements can be modeled using an analytical method. The benchmark will include comparisons of both methods with the beam dynamics models in use at ESS: TraceWin and Toutatis. As this analytical method used in DYNAC is fast, it is a prime candidate for use as an online beam simulation tool.
