Hi:
I expect to drive an ac rectified pulsed current (6A peak DC) thru this linked inductor @ 120hz to charge a couple large 15KuF caps.

Spice shows an oscillating AC current of around 6 to 13A P-P in the inductor. Pi filter arrangement with 2kUf, 220u inductor, then 30KuF.
Since the DC saturation is 5.8A is this inductor adequate or will it go into saturation?
