Tank Size Calculator

Once you know your tank’s dimensions, you simply need to select the type of storage tank you are calculating the volume for – horizontal cylindrical tanks, vertical cylindrical tanks or rectangular tanks.

Next, you need to select the measurement unit that your tank measurements are in to ensure your results are accurate. You will need to add the diameter and width for both horizontal cylindrical tanks, vertical cylindrical tanks.

If you have rectangular tanks, you will need to include the length, width and height of the tank. Optionally with all tank types, you can also include the liquid height, which will then allow you to work out the spare capacity available in the tank.

The results of your inputs will be displayed in the following measurement units;

• Litres
• Cubic Metres (m³)
• Gallons (UK)
• Gallons (US)
• Barrels
• Cubic Feet (ft³)

If you already have an existing measurement unit you wish to convert, our tank volume converter will allow you to do this quickly and easily. You can convert a tank’s storage capacity between numerous quantities as seen below.

Simply enter the amount of liquid (volume) you wish to convert and use the dropdown menus to select the measurement units you would like to convert from and convert to.
