what does Time-Harmonic Approach mean?

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Dear All

There is a concept which is unclear to me. I would be grateful if one can simplify it for me.
I have a set of equations, which I already solved them in time domain, now I would like to solve them in frequency domain while applying a sine voltage.
Here is the sentence:

Since the externally applied voltage is assumed to vary sinusoidally with time, it seems natural to assume a time-harmonic approach in order to transform equations to frequency domain.

Can somebody explain me the time-harmonic approach??

Regards
