Flyback power converters, Part 1: basic principles
A: Unlike a convention transformer which is used only to step a voltage up or down, the flyback transformer is also used as a magnetic energy-storage element (thus functioning as an inductor). It is not just a basic two-winding (primary/secondary) transformer but has additional windings which are essential to the flyback operation.
The Flyback Converter with Leakage Inductance Part I – …
The Flyback Converter in CCM A perfect CCM flyback converter transmits power in two operating cycles: 1) the on-time ton during which the primary-side power switch SW closes and energy builds up in the transformer primary inductance Lp 2) during the off-time toff where the switch opens and energy is transferred to the secondary side via diode D.
Flyback transformer for high-voltage capacitor charging
A capacitor is also an energy storage device, and its energy can be calculated as 1/2CV^2. So a 0.3uF charged to 1500 volts has 0.34 Joules of energy. To do this fifty times per second would require 17 watts (0.34 *50 joules per second) in a 100% efficient system.
What is a flyback?
There probably isn''t much difference in reality, both mean a couple of coils sharing a common core. A flyback is a special kind of transformer as it can store energy like an inductor (an ideal transformer doesn''t store energy), maybe the term ''coupled inductor'' is used to distinguish between something used like an inductor and something used ...
energy store (flyback converter)
The OP''s question regarding the flyback converter was clearly about energy storage in the transformer. So I guess their question has been answered. One might extend the notion to any physical situation in which an electric current exists - there will be energy "stored" in the magnetic field created by the current.

Flyback "transformer" is NOT COUPLED INDUCTORS – TESLAco
Only one coil is operational in the ON-time sub cycle period. Then in the OFF-period i/p coil is no longer operational (switch is off), and energy is now transfered from the core''s air-gap energy storage to the o/p coil''s circuit (i.e. square wave voltages on the coils have reversed). There is no simultaneous cooperation between the two coils.

Flyback Converter
The flyback converter is an isolated version of the single switched inductor. Instead of having a single inductor for energy storage two inductors are coupled providing a primary side for energy storage and a secondary side to provide isolation. Topologies are similar to a single transformer [31] and a multiwinding transformer [32].
