Why is the temperature 15.5°C important in this conversion?

The temperature 15.5°C is a common reference for liquid fuel density, ensuring the mass flow rate accounts for temperature-dependent density variations of gasoline.

Can I use this conversion for fluids other than gasoline?

No, this specific conversion applies only to gasoline at 15.5°C. Other fluids require adjustments based on their density.

What should I consider about flow conditions when using this converter?

The conversion assumes steady flow conditions; fluctuating or transient flows may require more detailed analysis.
