Why is the conversion specific to gasoline at 15.5 °C?

Because the mass flow rate depends on gasoline density which varies with temperature; 15.5 °C is a standard reference temperature for liquid fuels.

Can I use this converter for fluids other than gasoline?

No, this conversion is tailored for gasoline at 15.5 °C and should not be used for other fluids without adjusting for density differences.

What does 1 gallon (UK)/day represent in liters?

One gallon (UK)/day equals 4.54609 liters per day or approximately 4.54609 × 10⁻³ cubic meters per day.
