How to Calculate Wok Volume

Determine the internal volume of a wok from its diameter and depth. Woks have a rounded bottom that the calculator models as a spherical cap.

Example: a 30 cm wok with 9 cm depth holds approximately 3.2 liters. A large 36 cm wok with 10 cm depth holds about 4.5 liters of liquid.

Useful for estimating cooking capacity, oil volume for deep frying, and recipe scaling in wok cooking.
