Recent analyses of small collision systems, namely $p+p$ and $p+$Pb at theLHC and $p+$Au, $d+$Au and $^{3}$He+Au at RHIC, have revealed azimuthalmomentum anisotropies commonly associated with collective flow in largersystems. Viscous hydrodynamics and parton cascade calculations have provedsuccessful at describing some flow-like observables in these systems. These twoclasses of calculations also confirm these observables to be directly relatedto the initial geometry of the created medium. However, the question of whetherequilibrium dynamics is the dominant driver of the signal remains open, giventhe short lifetime of small systems. In this regime, pre-equilibrium dynamicsand late stage hadronic interactions are expected to play a significant role.Hence, a beam energy scan of small systems---that amounts to varying theinitial temperature and the lifetime of the medium---can provide valuableinformation to shed light on these issues. In this paper, we presentpredictions from viscous hydrodynamics (SONIC), partonic (AMPT) and hadronic(UrQMD) cascade calculations for elliptic $v_2$ and triangular $v_3$ anisotropycoefficients in $d$+Au at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 7.7, 20, 39, 62.4 and 200 GeV,corresponding to the expected running at RHIC in 2016. We also presentpredictions for $d$+Pb at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 5.02 TeV, an interesting system tocompare to existing $p+$Pb data taken at the LHC.
