Most existing temperature field calculation programs have relative defects. In the present paper, based on merits of ANSYS platform, a temperature field calculation program of mass concrete structure is developed and demonstrated. According to actual pouring progress and thermodynamic parameters, a roller-compacted concrete dam is simulated. The difference of maximum temperature between calculated and measured values of measuring points is less than 1.8°C. Furthermore, the relative difference is -5%–5%. This result shows that the calculation program developed based on ANSYS platform can simulate and calculate the temperature field of mass concrete structure.
