A series motor is one in which the field windings are in series with the armature windings. So the torque is proportional to the square of the supply current.
'Shunt' is an archaic term for 'parallel'. So a shunt motor is one in which the field winding is in parallel with the armature windings. So the torque is proportional to the supply current.

What is DC shunt motor?
A shunt DC motor connects the armature and field windings in parallel or shunt with a common D.C. power source. This type of motor has good speed regulation even as the load varies, but does not have the starting torque of a series DC motor
What field setting for a dc shunt motor wired in series on high voltage?
A shunt dc motor has quite different characteristics from a series motor. Wired in series, the same current passes through the armature and the field winding and it is most unlikely that a shunt motor would have a field winding that is suitable for this. Therefore a shunt motor cannot be wired as a series motor in general because its field winding is designed for only a small current.
What is difference between stab shunt dc motor and shunt dc motor?
A series motor respond by decreasing its speed with small increase in current for a given load torque. A shunt motor holds its speed nearly constant with large increase in input current for same amount of load torque
What happen when a DC shunt motor is connected to ac supply?
If it is a series motor it may still work. If it is a shunt motor it will not work , it will produce a humming noise and get heated. The shunt fields normally have high reactance so the field current will be drastically reduced, which may not be able to create the requisite torque.

A DC shunt motor is a motor using DC supply with the the inductor connected parallel to the armature.

Why can we start a shunt motor under no load but why can't a series motor?
The torque on a series motor is determined by the square of the armature current and, so, is very large -much larger than that of a shunt motor. Consequently, on starting, with no back-emf being generated, the torque on a series motor can be dangerously high if the machine has no mechanical load.

DifferEnces of long vs short shunt DC COMPOUND MOTORS?
the basic difference is ,in short shunt motor the series field winding wont carry any current under no load condition whereas in long shunt motors series winding will carry no load current.....
What are the basic types of facts controllers?
series controller, shunt controller,series-shunt controller,series-series controller
If the rheostat were connected in series with the shunt field winding and the combination placed across a 120 V dc line what shunt field current variations could be obtained from your motor?
It could be anything, it depends on the design of the motor and whether it is a high-power or a low-power motor.
What is a DC shunt motor?
A DC shunt motor is a motor using DC supply with the the inductor connected parallel to the armature.
