The invention discloses a method for preparing a cement clinker in a laboratory. The method comprises the following steps: A, preparing a raw material, namely independently grinding different raw materials, screening, mixing, putting water into coal powder, kneading into balls, putting the balls into a high-temperature furnace, and mixing weighed materials and coal ash so as to obtain raw material powder; B, preparing a test sample, namely putting water into the raw material powder, uniformly mixing, putting into a mold, pressing, demolding, and drying the test sample in a drying oven; C, calcining a clinker, namely putting the dried test sample into a high-temperature furnace, and calcining according to procedures of staged heating and heat preservation; and D, cooling the clinker, namely performing sudden cooling by using a cooling fan, crushing the cooled clinker, uniformly mixing, and performing powder milling on the clinker, a retarded adhesive material and a mixing material, thereby obtaining expected cement. The method has great instruction significances for cement development in laboratories. The clinker can be prepared from conventional raw materials and industrial wastes as well, and the cement clinker prepared by using the method can completely meet auxiliary material design requirements.
