Why is 15.5°C used as the reference temperature for gasoline?

15.5°C is a common standard reference temperature to account for density variations in liquid fuels like gasoline.

Can I use acre-foot/hour directly for gasoline measurements?

Acre-foot/hour is a volumetric unit usually for water; using it for gasoline requires considering gasoline’s density at 15.5°C.

What should I do if the gasoline temperature differs from 15.5°C?

You need to recalibrate or adjust the density reference since conversion depends specifically on gasoline’s density at 15.5°C.
