One of the activities of the EVEDA (Engineering Validation and Engineering Design Activities) phase of the IFMIF (International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility) project consists in building, testing and operating, in Japan, a 125 mA/9 MeV deuteron accelerator, called LIPAc, which has been developed in Europe. For the accelerator safety aspects, a precise knowledge of beam loss location and power deposition is crucial, especially for a high intensity, high power accelerator like LIPAc. This paper presents the beam dynamics simulations allowing to estimate beam losses in different situations of the accelerator lifetime: starting from scratch, beam commissioning, tuning or exploration, routine operation, sudden failure. Some results of these studies are given and commented. Recommendations for hot point protection, beam stop velocity, beam power limitation are given accordingly.
