Temperature distribution is an important parameter in the operation of DC cables, while there are few studies at present. In this paper, the steady-state temperature field distribution of DC cable was calculated by simulation, and the factors including conductor current and outer surface temperature were discussed and analyzed. The results showed that there is a temperature gradient in the radial direction of the cable; Both the conductor current and the outer surface temperature have a significant effect on the overall temperature of the cable; The increase in the conductor current and the outer surface temperature will significantly increase the conductor temperature. However, the insulation temperature difference changes little.
