Why is gasoline standardized to 15.5 °C for this unit?

Standardizing gasoline quantities at 15.5 °C accounts for temperature-dependent density changes, enabling consistent measurement and accounting in petroleum operations.

Can I use the conversion to measure gasoline flow at temperatures other than 15.5 °C?

The conversion assumes gasoline is at 15.5 °C; using it for other temperatures without adjustments may produce inaccurate results.

What does cubic foot per hour represent in this context?

It denotes the volumetric flow rate of gasoline, showing the volume passing a point per hour, used for engineering and process measurements.
