A three-phase meter can be used for single phase while the reverse is not the case.
The formulas you are looking for are, single phase kW = I x E x pf/1000. For three phase kW = I x E x 1.73 x pf/1000.
Phasing, or the number of phases in an electrical system has nothing to do with the voltage. A single phase and three phase supply could have a voltage supply of any given voltage from virtually 0 to infinity. Most single phase power supplies in the US are 120/208-240 volt. Three phase power supplies are typically 120/208 to 277/480 volt.
The reverse running of a three phase meter is possible when one of the meter's two potential coils fails. This is a problem found typically on a Delta service. A three phase meter in this condition is damaged and will report lower energy use than actual.
A 7.5 kW three phase load will be balanced by the manufacturer. When connected to a three phase source the line current on each phase will be equal.
The watt meter on three phase system is the same as the one on your house except that it monitors all three phases at once. The meter base is called a 7 jaw base which monitors the three phases and the neutral. The house meter is a 5 jaw meter. The watt meter is a totalizer which keeps track to the watts consumed by the dials on the face of the meter, which gets read monthly by the power supplier.

No. For three phase, you need a minimum of a two element meter.
Single-phase, 2.5 amps; three-phase 1.443 amps.

No, it is not possible to convert a 2.4 kw single phase appliance to a 9kw 3 phase appliance. Single phase can not be converted to three phase with out considerable cost involved.

Virtually nothing. The only real benefit you would get is if you had three phase vs. single phase fans, and I'm fairly certain even the three phase convection ovens use single phase fans. The oven will be rated at a certain kW usage, which applies whether it's three phase or single phase (...and will be ~ the same). If the three phase convection oven kW usage is slightly lower, it is because it is heating slightly less (so its' kW rating is actually less than the single phase), and vice versa. Insulating factors will have a significantly higher impact on cost savings compared to single vs. three phase in this instance.
The formula you are looking for is kW = I x E x pf/1000 for single phase and kW = I x E x 1.73 x pf/1000 for three phase.
