The present study addresses the hydrodynamics of a pilot-scale fluidized bed combustor with a focus on the establishment of "Gulf Stream" circulation patterns as a solids mixing promoter. Time-resolved pressure signals measured at different locations in the bed and in the plenum were analyzed in the time, frequency and phase-space domains. Results were matched against qualitative characterization of fluidization patterns by visual observation of the bed surface.
