contents We are commissioning a 2.5-MeV proton beam for the Integrable Optics Test Accelerator at Fermilab, allowing experiments in the strong space-charge regime with incoherent betatron tune shifts nearing 0.5. Accurate modelling of space-charge dynamics is vital for understanding planned experiments. We compare anticipated emittance growth and beam loss in the bare IOTA configuration using transverse space-charge models in Xsuite, PyORBIT, and MADX simulation codes. Our findings reveal agreement within a factor of 2 in core phase-space density predictions up to 100 synchrotron periods at moderate beam currents, while tail distributions and beam loss show significant differences.
