I'm designing a discontinous mode flyback converter with 2 outputs, the first would be 8v and second 16v.
Will the energy discharge faster in the 8v side, because it has half the turns and, therefore 1/4 of the inductance compared to the 16v side?
Or will the current be same in both windings? I'm feeling dumb 8-O

How I calculate the discharge time, if the energy in the magnetic field is, for example, 10uJ, inductances 4 and 16uH and voltages same as above?
 

it depends to the output loads.
in discontinuous mode Wp=0.5Fsw.LpIp^2=W1+W2=0.5Fsw(L1I1^2+L2I2^2)
If one output become no load,its current will become zero and the transformer will act like a single output transformer.
