Can anybody tell me why ASME Sec II-D sub part 1 specifies allowable stresses different than in B31.3 for various temperatures?

You can study the differences by comparing the basis for establishing allowable stress values, described in the mandatory Appendix 1 of SECTION II, PART D with the requirements of B31.3/ 302.3.2

You can find out some details in J.P.Ellenberger's book "Piping Systems & Pipeline ASME Code Simplified"

Best regards.
