Calculate the volume and capacity of a vertical capsule tank or container. The capsule tank here is a vertical cylindrical tank with hemispherical heads. This calculator uses centimetres for measurements.

Approximate weight of Fuel or Water

one litre of water = 1 kilogram
one litre of diesel fuel = 0.832 kilogram
one litre of gas = 0.75 kilogram

Calculator

1. the diameter of the tank in centimetres
2. the height of the tank in centimetres
3. the weight of the liquid in kilograms per litre

Results

1. the volume of the tank in cubic centimetres
2. the volume in cubic metres
3. the volume in cubic inches
4. the volume in cubic feet
5. the capacity of the tank in centilitres
6. the capacity in litres
7. the capacity in US gallons
8. the capacity in Imperial gallons
9. full tank liquid weight based on kilograms/L
10. the surface area of the tank in square centimetres
11. surface area in square metres
12. surface area in square inches
13. surface area in square feet

Formula

V = 𝝅(D/2)²H
where V is the volume
𝝅 = 3.14159265
D the diameter
H the length of the cylinder part of the tank
