The dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration is an important index of water quality. This paper studies the dissolved oxygen recovery of the water and bubble mixture pipe flow through two sudden contractions and expansions. A 3-D computational fluid dy- namics model is established to simulate the water and bubble mixture flow with a DO transport model. An experiment is conducted to validate the mathematical model. The mathematical model is used to evaluate the effect of geometric parameters on the head loss coefficient, the relative saturation coefficient and the oxygen absorption efficiency. It is found that the contraction ratio is a signi- ficant influencing factor, other than the relative length and the relative distance. Given the same relative length and relative distance, the head loss coefficient, the relative saturation coefficient and the oxygen absorption efficiency increase with the decrease of the contraction ratio, respectively. Given the same relative length and contraction ratio, the head loss coefficient increases with the in- crease of the relative distance firstly, and then decreases gradually, in contrast, the relative saturation coefficient and the oxygen ab- sorption efficiency decrease with the increase of the relative distance firstly, and then increase gradually, the relative saturation coefficient and the oxygen absorption efficiency are inversely proportional to the head loss coefficient, respectively.
