or




Use this calculator for computing the volume of partially-filled horizontal cylinders. With horizontal cylinders, volume changes are not linear and in fact are rather complex. Fortunately you have this calculator to do the work for you.

If a cylinder is vertical, the volume change is linear. For example, if 3 gallons are poured into an empty vertical cylinder, and the level measures 1 foot, then another 3 gallons would raise the level to 2 feet and so on.


Significant Figures >>>
Numbers are displayed in scientific notation with the amount of significant figures you specify. For easier readibility, numbers between .001 and 1,000 will not be in scientific notation but will still have the same precision.
You may change the number of significant figures displayed by changing the number in the box above.
Most browsers, will display the answers properly but if you are seeing no answers at all, enter a zero in the box above, which will eliminate all formatting but at least you will see the answers.
