Why do I need to convert gallon (US)/second to gallon (UK)/second?

Because the US and UK gallons differ in volume, converting is necessary to compare flow rates accurately between systems using these different units.

Can this conversion be used for all types of fluids?

The conversion applies to volumetric flow rates assuming steady flow and does not consider fluid density or temperature variations.

Is the conversion factor constant?

Yes, this tool uses a fixed conversion factor based on the defined volumes of the US and UK gallons.
