Abstract A Low-energy RHIC Electron Cooler (LEReC) system is presently under construction at Brookhaven National Laboratory. This device shall enable gold ion collisions at energies below the design injection energy with sufficient luminosity. Electron beam with energies between 1.6, 2.0 and 2.6 MeV are necessary. This machine will be the first to attempt electron cooling using bunched electron beam, using a 703 MHz SRF cavity for acceleration. Special consideration must be given to the effect of space charge forces on the transverse and longitudinal beam quality. We will present the current layout of the cooler and beam parameter simulations using the computer codes PARMELA.
