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

The density of gasoline changes with temperature. Using 15.5°C as a reference standardizes mass flow calculations for consistent and comparable results.

Can this converter be used for other fuels besides gasoline?

No, this conversion is specific to gasoline at 15.5°C. Different fuels or temperatures require distinct conversion factors.

What does liter per second measure compared to kilogram per hour?

Liter per second is a volumetric flow rate measuring volume per time, while kilogram per hour represents a mass flow rate accounting for the substance's density.
