Why is the conversion specific to gasoline at 15.5°C?

The density of gasoline varies with temperature, so using a reference temperature of 15.5°C standardizes the mass flow calculation for consistency in measurements.

Can this converter be used for other fuels or fluids?

No, this unit conversion is designed specifically for gasoline and its temperature-dependent density; other fluids require different conversion factors.

How do I use this conversion in fuel consumption measurements?

Convert volumetric flow rates from mL/s to pound/second to report fuel quantities in mass units, which avoids volume variations from temperature changes.
