Torque is directly proportional to flux and armature current.

T ∝ ? Ia

In dc shunt motors, flux is constant. Hence torque is proportional to armature current.

T ∝ Ia

In dc series motors, flux is directly proportional to armature current. Hence torque is directly proportional to square of the armature current.

Ta ∝ Ia2

In dc series motor at saturation condition, flux is constant. Hence torque is proportional to armature current.

T ∝ Ia
