Tank Volume Calculator
Calculate tank volume and capacity for cylindrical, rectangular, and spherical tanks. Essential for storage tank sizing and capacity planning.
How to Calculate Tank Volume
Tank volume calculations depend on the tank shape. Each shape has its own formula for determining volume.
Volume Formulas
- Cylindrical Tank: Volume = π x r2 x h
- Rectangular Tank: Volume = length x width x height
- Spherical Tank: Volume = (4/3) x π x r3
- Where r = radius, h = height, π ≈ 3.14159
Common Applications
- Water Storage: Residential and commercial water tanks
- Fuel Storage: Gasoline, diesel, and heating oil tanks
- Chemical Storage: Industrial process tanks
- Septic Systems: Septic tanks and holding tanks
- Swimming Pools: Pool volume for chemical calculations
