Partial Volume in a Hemisphere Dome Tank/Container
Calculate the amount of liquid inside a partial filled hemispherical dome tank.
The dome tank here is in the shape of a half sphere (hemisphere) and the tank's height is equal to half the diameter.
This calculator uses inches for measurements.
Approximate weight of Fuel or Water
one US gallon of water = 8.34 pounds.
one US gallon of diesel fuel = 7.1 pounds
one US gallon of gas = 6 pounds
Calculator
- enter the tank's base length
- the depth of the liquid inside the tank in inches
- the weight of the liquid in pounds per US gallon
Results
- the volume of the dome tank in cubic inches
- the volume of the tank in cubic feet
- the volume of the tank in cubic metres
- the total amount of liquid the tank can hold in US gallons
- the amount of liquid inside the tank in US gallons
- the amount of liquid inside the tank in Imperial gallons
- the amount of liquid inside the tank in litres
- the amount of liquid inside the tank in cubic feet
- the weight of the liquid inside the tank based on lbs/gal US
- the amount of liquid it will take to fill this tank in US gallons
Formula
V = 𝝅/12(3d²f-4f³)
where V is the volume of liquid inside the tank
𝝅 = 3.14159265
d the base length
f the depth of the liquid inside the tank
