Electrical Machines
The introduction of interpoles in between the main poles improves the performance of a dc machine, because

 the flux waveform is improved with reduction in harmonics
 the inequality of air-gap flux on the top and bottom halves of the armature is removed
 a counter-emf is induced in the coil undergoing commutation
 the interpoles produce additional flux to augment the developed torque
