How to use half wave DC 30v pulsing , as already on+ off as "switch", as part of boost converter to be able to get over 100v at 60 cycles on capacitor speed for charging? The inductor is 1.75 millihenry with a diode in front. Current passing through inductor is 6 amps. There is a parallel bypass diode also across the inductor to capacitor. The flyback effect was to go through the bypass diode in reverse to increase volts on the capacitor? 1st diode is the main rectifier, that also blocks the reverse pulse. Is this correct? Power was to go to 5 ohm end load resistor, but at a much lower frequency as 15 cycles switching, at about 100v. I was assuming the cap would charge past 100v during the flyback time of coil as extra pulses, and the 60 cycles frequency, of the power supply shorter time PERIOD . Is this true? In other words, the capacitor is to be charging faster than it is discharging with the electrical load, and accumulating higher voltage.

That does not look like a conventional boost converter. Can you explain how it operates or maybe provide a simulation?

This was an existing circuit from 2008, without a capacitor. I need to determine if 100v + can be derived from pulse forward through inductors and the resultant flyback reverse pulse to go also forward through parallel diode. The exact values of inductor is also resonant to 60 cycles, as also the input pulsing DC. On and off time charges up coils with energy for discharge to a load. The original web forum said 100 volts output was required. Successive pulses could charge a capacitor as long as the final switch is at lower frequency. The disclosure originally may not have been complete.

I very much doubt that the circuit, as shown, functioned as described in 2008. the diode shunting the two inductors tends to prevent much current from flowing in those inductors, unless there is some hidden circuit that we do not see.
