With the vortex shedding and reciprocating potential flow "phase locked" the amplitude of the steady state oscillations is determined by the condition that the net power produced in the resonator neck (the source power less the sink power) is equal to the sum of the radiated acoustic power and that carried by the vortices.
In recent years, microwave (MW) thermotherapy received considerable attention due to many advantages including the ability to achieve effective ablation of large tumors and less heat sink effects, when compared with other cancer therapies such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and surgery [1 6].
