I'm not sure what an R-core transformer is, I've never heard that term. If both windings are on the same bobbin that is referred to as bifilar winding. This close coupling of primary and secondary increases efficiency of the transformer. I have known this type to be called an E-core, however I'm not the "last word" on transformer design???
