How to use this tool

  1. Enter internal diameter, height.
  2. Select Calculate to view the result.
  3. Check the method and assumptions below before using the result.

The method, explained

Capacity = π(diameter/2)² × fill height × 1000 liters.

A WORKED EXAMPLE

Using internal diameter = 2 m, height = 2.5 m, the result is 7853.98163 L. Change these example inputs to match your task; use the method above to check each step.

What to keep in mind

A material-quantity estimate, not a structural design or building-code check. Confirm site measurements, supplier coverage and waste before ordering.

Common questions

Which inputs does this calculation need?

Find liquid capacity of a vertical cylindrical tank. Enter internal diameter in m, height in m. The filled example is editable and is not a saved personal record.

How should I interpret the result?

A material-quantity estimate, not a structural design or building-code check. Confirm site measurements, supplier coverage and waste before ordering.
