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

The temperature of 15.5°C is used as a standard reference to define gasoline density, ensuring consistent and comparable mass flow calculations.

Can I use this conversion for fuels other than gasoline?

No, this conversion applies specifically to gasoline at 15.5°C and may not be accurate for other hydrocarbons or different temperatures.

What happens if the gasoline temperature differs from 15.5°C?

If the temperature varies, the density changes, which can affect the accuracy of the conversion, so adjustments are necessary to maintain precision.
