Freewheeling
Assume ideal diode (zero reverse rocvery time, zero voltage drop)
An antiparallel diode known as the freewheeling diode must be connected across the load to provide a path for the inductive current to flow.

Learn performance parameters of rectifiers and power converters Study effects of load inductance on load current

Note that the diode conduction time is longer than half-period The waveform is nonsinusoidal but periodic.

Conclusion
An inductive load can make load current flow continuously if voltage ratio is below the critical value
E=0 guarantees continuous current If L=0, any E>0 will cause current interruptions References: Section 3.4 and examples in that section
