The difference between saturated steam and superheated steam

Regarding the difference between saturated steam and superheated steam, and the mutual conversion between them
For basic questions, first ask Baidu; if you have the resources, don’t let others do the tasks that require no technical skills for you
For example, at 100°C, water vapor at one atmosphere of pressure is saturated vapor; at 120°C, water vapor at one atmosphere of pressure is superheated vapor. For superheated steam to turn into saturated condensate, it must first release sensible heat and then latent heat. That is, condensation.
At the same pressure, saturated steam and saturated water (i.e., water in a boiling state) have the same temperature; the difference between the temperature of superheated steam and that of saturated steam is the degree of superheat
