hi

how we can visualize time harmonics of a wave in real sense.
harmonics are like

1w , 2w , 3 w (where w is frequency)

so what does time harmonics of a wave means
 

Re: Time Harmonics

There will be amplitudes and phase associated with the harmonics. Usually for the sake of conservation of energy the higher frequencies contain lower amplitudes. Each harmonic is a sinusoidal oscillation in time domain with different phases. If you simply superimpose them on one another you will get the actual waveform whose harmonics you found out.

For example see the link:
