Why is gasoline density at 15.5°C used for this conversion?

15.5°C is a standard reference temperature commonly used to account for temperature-dependent density changes in liquid fuels, ensuring consistency in mass flow calculations.

Can I use this conversion for fluids other than gasoline?

No, this conversion is specific to gasoline at 15.5°C and should not be applied to other fluids or temperatures without proper adjustments.

What should I do if my flow rates are very low?

Be aware that measurement precision may be limited by instrument sensitivity at very low flow rates; use precise instruments and verify calibration when possible.
