Calculation

  1. enter the height of the on-edge oval tank in inches
  2. the width of the tank in inches
  3. the length of the tank in inches
  4. the depth of the liquid inside the tank in inches
  5. the weight of the liquid in pounds per US gallon

Results

  1. the volume of the on-edge oval tank in cubic inches
  2. the volume in cubic feet
  3. the volume in cubic metres
  4. the total amount of liquid the tank can hold in US gallons
  5. the amount of liquid inside the tank in US gallons
  6. the amount of liquid inside the tank in Imperial gallons
  7. the amount of liquid inside the tank in litres
  8. the surface area of the tank in square inches
  9. the amount of liquid inside the tank in cubic feet
  10. the weight of the liquid inside the tank based on lbs/gal US
  11. the amount of liquid it will take to fill this tank in US gallons

Formula
V=0.5r²(Y-sin(Y))L+d(W-H)
where V is the volume
r half the tanks width
Y=2cos-¹(r-d)/d
d the depth of the liquid inside the tank
W the width of the tank
H the tanks height
