Why is the gasoline reference temperature set at 15.5°C?

Using a standard reference temperature of 15.5°C ensures consistent mass-to-volume conversion by accounting for thermal expansion effects in gasoline.

Can I use this conversion for fluids other than gasoline?

This conversion is specific to gasoline at 15.5°C and may not accurately apply to other fluids due to differences in density and thermal properties.

How do I handle flow measurements if the gasoline temperature differs from 15.5°C?

If the gasoline temperature varies, density corrections should be applied to align measurements with the 15.5°C reference before conversion.
