AI Explanation

The correct answer is D. The illustrated steam drum in the image SG-0011 shows the saturated steam from the boiler drum being delivered to the superheater via the labeled item D. This is the correct path for the saturated steam to enter the superheater, where it will be heated to a higher temperature and become superheated steam. The other options (A, H, and P) represent different components of the steam drum or boiler system, but do not represent the means by which saturated steam is delivered to the superheater.
