Storage · Internal capacity

Calculate tank capacity and headspace.

Choose an upright cylinder or rectangular tank, enter verified internal dimensions, and separate full capacity from working fill.

2 Set working volume assumptions

Transparent calculation

Internal shape volume × whole tank count.

Cylinders use πr²h; rectangular tanks use length × width × height. Working fill and headspace partition the full geometric capacity.
