Why is the reference temperature of 15.5°C important for this conversion?

Using 15.5°C as a reference temperature standardizes gasoline density accounting for thermal expansion, ensuring consistent and comparable mass measurements.

Can this conversion be used if the gasoline temperature differs from 15.5°C?

No, deviations from 15.5°C can cause errors since the density reference changes; such differences require adjustments outside this converter.

Is this tool suitable for direct conversion without equipment calibration?

This tool provides unit conversion, but large scale industrial measurements should include flowmeter calibration for accuracy.
