Which part of it is theory?
- Microwaves heat water through dielectric heating - Fact
- Two conductive materials at different temperatures in contact (magnetrons & water) will transfer heat through conduction - Fact
- A flowing fluid passing by another medium at a different temperature will transfer heat through convection (think of blowing on hot soup) - Fact

The only part that is theory is the efficiency. Microwaves are about 70% efficiency with almost the full 30% of loss from the unit heating itself. This will be consumed by the water running past it (still fact)...not a lot of places for energy loss.
