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

Gasoline density at 15.5°C is used as a standard reference temperature to ensure consistency and accuracy when converting volume flow rates to mass flow rates.

Can I use this conversion for fuels other than gasoline?

This specific conversion is optimized for gasoline at 15.5°C, so using it for other fuels may lead to inaccurate results due to different densities.

What should I do if gasoline temperature varies significantly from 15.5°C?

If gasoline temperature differs substantially from 15.5°C, the conversion may not be precise and additional density corrections or measurements should be considered.
