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

The temperature of 15.5°C is used as a standard reference to ensure the gasoline density and flow measurements are consistent and accurately corrected for mass flow calculations.

Can this converter be used for fluids other than gasoline?

No, this converter is specifically designed for gasoline at 15.5°C and may not provide accurate results for other fluids without additional corrections.

How do I convert liter/second to pound/hour for gasoline at a temperature different than 15.5°C?

This tool assumes the density at 15.5°C; to convert at other temperatures, you must adjust for changes in gasoline density before using this conversion.
