Formula of Tank Capacity

The formula for tank capacity is:

Volume = Tank Capacity = π x d2 x L

Where,

  • L = length of Cylinder,
  • d = diameter of the cylinder.

Examples of Cylinder Tank Capacity

Example 1

Evaluate the cylindrical tank's capacity if the cylinder's length is 10 and the diameter is 6.

Solution:

Step 1: Given measurements

L = 10, d = 6, Tank capacity =?

Step 2: Take the formula.

Tank capacity = π x L x d2

Step 3: Put the values in the above formula and simplify.

Tank capacity = π x 10 x 62

Tank capacity = 22/7 x 10 x 36

Tank capacity = 282.735 cubic inches

In Gallons.

Tank capacity = 1.22396 gallons

 Example 2

Calculate the cylindrical Tank capacity if its length and diameter are given below.

L = 34, d = 118.

Solution:

Step 1: Write the given measurements.

L = 34, d = 118, Tank capacity =?

Step 2: Take the formula.

Tank capacity = π x L x d2

Step 3: Put the values in the above formula and multiply the terms.

Tank capacity = π x 34 x (118)2

Tank capacity = 22/7 x 34 x 13924

Tank capacity = 371809 (in cubic inches)

In Gallons.

Tank capacity = 1609.56 (in gallons)
