Why is gasoline temperature specified at 15.5°C in this conversion?

Because gasoline density changes with temperature, specifying 15.5°C provides a standardized reference condition to accurately convert volumetric flow to mass flow.

Can I use this converter for large flow rates?

This converter is suitable for small flow rates expressed in cubic centimeters per second; for larger flows, other units or scaling methods might be more appropriate.

Does the motor fuel composition affect the conversion accuracy?

Yes, variations in gasoline composition can change its density, which impacts the precision of mass flow conversions based on volumetric input.
