Why is the gasoline temperature standardized at 15.5°C?

Standardizing gasoline at 15.5°C accounts for temperature-dependent density changes, ensuring consistent measurement for inventory and process control.

Can this conversion be used for fluids other than gasoline?

No, this conversion specifically applies to gasoline with properties standardized at 15.5°C and is not valid for other fluids without adjustments.

What should be done if the gasoline temperature differs from 15.5°C?

If the temperature deviates, recalculations are necessary to account for density variations before applying this conversion.
