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

15.5°C is a standard reference temperature used to correct gasoline density and ensure consistent mass flow calculations during custody transfer and metering.

Can this conversion be used for fluids other than gasoline?

No, this conversion specifically applies to gasoline at 15.5°C and cannot be used for other fluids without density adjustments.

What should I do if the gasoline temperature is different from 15.5°C?

Additional correction factors are required because temperature changes affect gasoline density and the accuracy of the conversion.
