Conical Tank Volume Formula


Volume Calculation

The volume of a conical tank is calculated using the formula:

\[ V_{\text{cone}} = \frac{\pi}{3} H (br^2 + br \cdot tr + tr^2) \]

Where:

  • H = height of the conical section
  • br = bottom radius (bottom diameter / 2)
  • tr = top radius (top diameter / 2)
Filled Volume Calculation

The filled volume of the tank is calculated using the formula:

\[ R_{\text{cut}} = br + \left(\frac{H_{\text{filled}}}{H}\right) H \left(\frac{tr - br}{H}\right) \]

\[ V_{\text{filled}} = \frac{\pi}{3} \left(\frac{H_{\text{filled}}}{H}\right) H \left(br^2 + br \cdot R_{\text{cut}} + R_{\text{cut}}^2\right) \]

Where:

  • H_{\text{filled}} = filled height
  • H = height of the conical section
  • br = bottom radius (bottom diameter / 2)
  • tr = top radius (top diameter / 2)
