Can this converter be used for fuels other than gasoline?

No, the conversion assumes gasoline or fluids with similar density at 15.5°C and is not accurate for other fuels.

What should I consider when measuring low flow rates in liters per day?

Low volumetric flow rates correspond to very small mass flow rates, so sensitive and accurate measurement instruments are necessary.

How to Convert from Liter/day [L/d] to Kilogram/minute (Gasoline at 15.5°C)

Q: Why is gasoline density referenced at 15.5°C?

Using 15.5°C as a standard reference temperature compensates for thermal expansion, enabling consistent mass–volume conversions across different conditions.
