Which inductor would that be?

BTW, this is a solid state forum. Tubes are hollow state lol.

The inductor, is for increased reduction of ripple in the power suplly and it can be measured in a RLC Bridge.

There are other uses for the inductor, as load, in the anode or cathode circuits...but they are more rare.

Yes...but a inductor can also be use in "sand" circuits also as a load or in the power suplly...😉
