On January 15th 2011 the airpressure in Bologna about 1025 hPa ( High
pressure system) . At that airpressure water boils at 101 deg C. So the
higher temperature of the steam can be explained by the higher airpressure
and not be "superheated "steam.

it from getting hotter as it moves along the tube.
You are making assumptions about the geometry of the device. How do
you know there is no liquid water reservoir?
