How to use this tool

  1. Enter center-to-tube-center radius, tube radius.
  2. Select Calculate to view the result.
  3. Check the method and assumptions below before using the result.

The method, explained

Surface area = 4π² × major radius × tube radius.

A WORKED EXAMPLE

Using center-to-tube-center radius = 5 m, tube radius = 1 m, the result is 197.392088 m². Change these example inputs to match your task; use the method above to check each step.

What to keep in mind

Use the indicated units consistently. Ideal shapes are assumed; dimensions must describe the same object. Display rounding does not increase measurement precision.

Common questions

Which inputs does this calculation need?

Find the outer area of a ring torus. Enter center-to-tube-center radius in m, tube radius in m. The filled example is editable and is not a saved personal record.

How should I interpret the result?

Use the indicated units consistently. Ideal shapes are assumed; dimensions must describe the same object. Display rounding does not increase measurement precision.
