Misunderstanding document about leakage inductance in a flyback converter

I am currently reading a document about leakage inductance in a flyback converter from ON SEMICONDUCTOR . Here it is : https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/c061/313303ee8c231b069be4f0d67d9e4cddcbf0.pdf (the document is really insteresting)

Here are the schematics :

And here is what I do not understand (in yellow):

I do not understand why the current through the diode is null for a certain time. When the switch opens, due to lenz's law the voltage accross Lp reverse and as the leakage inductance was energized, the current across Lp and Ll is the same. So if the current through Lp is not null, as the current to the secondary is proportionnal to the current through Lp, it is not null... So there is something like the voltage across Lp and Ll are opposed in order to iLl(t) = -iLp(t), but why the voltage across Lp and Ll would be opposed ? It would mean that the leakage inductance by "discharging its energy" is still charging the energy of the primary inductance ... Why it would be ? and why it would not be the inverse ? I M LOST ...

Thank you very much,

• Your misunderstanding is with; "So if the current through Lp is not null, as the current to the secondary is proportionnal to the current through Lp, it is not null", the current to the secondary is not proportional to the current through $\ L_p$, the current to the secondary is $\ \frac{I_p-I_{leak}}{N}$, where $\ I_p$ is the current through $\ L_p$, $\ I_{leak}$ is the current through $\ l_{leak}$, and $\ N$ is the number of windings. if you read the circuit diagram it is obvious that if $\ I_p=I_{leak}$ then no current flows in the secondary. – Vinzent Feb 15 at 10:38
• Ask the author directly @Verbal Kint – G36 Feb 15 at 12:10
• Thank you for your comment Vinzent. I understood :) – Jess Feb 15 at 15:33
