Three-dimensional normal grain growth has been simulated in scale 300×300×300 using the generally accepted Potts model Monte Carlo method. The studies of the topology of grains indicate that the mean number of faces in the grain network <f>=13.91 is similar to other simulation results, but higher than most of the experimental data which containing a wide range of values, i.e., <f>=11.16~13.93. The three-dimensional AboavWeaire law and Liu-Yu law are observed to hold, but the fit coefficient is different from the theory models.
