Tungsten is interesting stuff when used in cold fusion. Hydrogen does not migrate or penetrate into it so many of the Brillouin and W&L theories are difficult to support when a tungsten lattice is used in cold fusion,
It also has a high melting point so very high temperatures can be produced before the nano-powder is destroyed. On another note, I would like to see the water and potassium carbide replaced in the high school reactor with lithium hydride as the hydrogen carrier. If such a “mud” of tungsten nano-powder and liquid LiH can be pressurized to 30 bars very high temperature (1200C to 1500C) reaction might be produced. Such high heat can efficiently power a hot CO2 turbine at and efficiency of 60%. We will then enter the realm of industrial quality process heat production.
