Water Container Capacity Calculator

Measure the length width and average depth of the shallow section then take the same measurements for the deeper section.

Water container capacity calculator.

Make sure to use the actual water depth in your calculations not the depth of the container. The si unit for volume is the cubic meter or m 3 by convention the volume of a container is typically its capacity and how much fluid it is able to hold rather than the amount of space that the actual container displaces. Volume is the quantification of the three dimensional space a substance occupies. We get many questions asking us to calculate the volume of topsoil gravel water concrete etc.

For rectangular and cylindrical round shapes. Dimensions in feet ft or inches in or metric dimensions in meters m or centimeters cm. The following tool will help you find the volume for some common shapes. Our tool estimates the total tank volume and liquid capacity using the below formulas.

This tank volume calculator is capable of giving all range of inputs at the same time. Calculate the volume of the shallow section and add that to the volume you calculate for the deeper section. Just choose the cylinder type and fill the requested values in the liquid volume calculator to know the total volume and water filled volume inside the cylinder. Calculator use estimate the total capacity and filled volumes in gallons and liters of tanks such as oil tanks and water tanks.
