The VINCY Cyclotron has to accelerate ions operating with the harmonic number of the RF voltage equal to 1, 2, 3 and 4. Two different central region configurations have been designed in order to satisfy the need for the broad ranges of ion species and energies that are expected to be obtained from the machine. The latest design of the spiral inflector, in the axial injection line, was used in the simulations. We present here only the results of the H–ion beam dynamics simulations. The ion tracking calculations were performed using the CBDA code. The electric and magnetic field maps were obtained using the TOSCA/OPERA3D and MERMAID codes. The measured magnetic field maps were also used. The main criteria used in the simulations were the good centering, the highest possible energy gain in the accelerating gaps, the maximal transmission through the central and acceleration regions, and the best possible quality of the ion beam at the extraction radius. The overall performance of the machine was optimized by adjusting the corresponding operational parameters.
