One of the criticisms of this high school experiment will come frome and will be based on the formation of various oxides of tungsten. The formation of these oxides will produce excess heat in the range from 130 to 220 Kcal/mol. This chemically derived source of heat should be eliminated by removing oxygen from the experiment. This change will get the high school experiment closer to what Rossi has done. Tungsten heat of oxidation Info can be found at http://www.dtic.mil/cgi-bin/GetTRDoc?AD=AD0269773
On 22passi, Passerini is gathering technical suggestions for Ugo Abundo from the L.Pirelli high school and a few resident engineers (one of them is even a friend of Sergio Focardi) in order to perform robust testing and take out any possible room for criticism. You could try posting this there, even in English, it will certainly help them.
