A CW high power linear accelerator can only work with very low particles losses and structure activation. At low energy, the RFQ is a very sensitive element to losses. To design the RFQ, a good understanding of the beam dynamics is requested. Generally, the reference code PARMTEQM is enough to design the accelerator. TOUTATIS has been written with goals of cross-checking results and obtaining a more reliable dynamics. This paper relates the different numerical methods used in the code. It is time-based, using multigrids methods and adaptive mesh for a fine description of the forces without being time consuming. The field is accurately calculated through a Poisson solver and the vanes are fully described, allowing to properly simulate the coupling gaps and RFQs extremities. Differences with PARMTEQM and LIDOS.RFQ are shown.
