How to Calculate Vertical Conical Tank Volume in Imperial Units

Determine volume of a vertical conical-bottom tank in gallons and cubic feet. Enter diameter, cylinder height, cone height, and fill level in inches or feet.

Example: a 5-foot diameter tank with 7-foot cylinder and 3-foot cone holds about 1,100 gallons total. At 5 feet fill (in the cylindrical portion), it contains roughly 775 gallons.

Standard for fermenters, conical-bottom silos, and gravity-fed processing tanks.
