I am trying to cognitively get how the electricity is moving withing the circuits/coils of a brushless motor. So far I understand that brushless motors are 3 phase coil circuits. And some have hall effect sensors in between each of the phase coils and some are sensorless.
So I am thinking that for a three phase brushless motor, that there are 3 states at which the motor is moving electricity through the coils, and there are 3 states (combinations at which the hall effect sensors are at. The picture above is one of the best representations I have found for the wiring graphic of the (stator?).
So it seems that the coils each get electrified in the same direction in series and pulls the coil core to the permanent magnet that is closest to it of the opposite pole. And there is only on coil being electrified at a time. Correct? I realise this may be very novice beginner question for many of you. Ideally I will find an animation which shows the electricity flow through all the 3 phases of running the motor and another doing the same for the hall effect sensors in the motor. Seems like this is a primary thing to grasp cognitively before moving forward on doing diagnostics, modifications, hacking, etc.
