Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate tank volume?

The calculation depends on the tank shape. For rectangular tanks: Volume = Length × Width × Height. For cylindrical tanks: Volume = π × Radius² × Height. For spherical tanks: Volume = (4/3) × π × Radius³.

Can I use different units?

This calculator uses feet for dimensions and provides results in cubic feet and gallons. You can convert from other units before entering values.

What if my tank is not a standard shape?

This calculator handles rectangular, cylindrical, and spherical tanks. For irregular shapes, you may need to break them down into standard shapes or use specialized software.

Is my data saved or shared?

No, your calculations are never saved or shared. All processing happens in your browser for maximum privacy and security.

Can I use this tool on mobile devices?
