So my waveform is a step function, where maximum voltage is at Vin = 40V, and minimum voltage is (-N1/N3)*Vin = -200V. The minimum voltage doesn't sound right to me, so I was wondering if anyone can confirm the validity of my results. Thanks for your time. enter image description here

The magnitude seems right to me, but the time should not be \$t_{off}\$, but \$\frac{1}{5} t_{on} \$ instead, because the demagnetization ends five time faster than the magnetization during the ON period (due to 5 times bigger reset voltage). After that there is no magnetizing current, the diode D3 stops conducting and the voltage stays zero across the windings.
