BLDC and odd vs. even number of poles
BLDC and odd vs. even number of poles
(OP)
A question that boggles me about BLDC poles is that I've noticed some cases of BLDC's with odd numbered poles like 9 for example, Aren't they supposed to come in pairs so the flux can always have a straight line to "flow" to, and an exclusive opposite pole?

(A 2 pole induction motor will actually have 6 individual poles. 1 pair for each of 3 phases.)
