    Volume = Pi x r^2 x h

    = 3.1415927 x 0.04m.sq x 0.53

    66601.76524 cubic centimetres

    or 66.6 litres.

    I think.

    mmm, thanks

    what about something 18inch long by 12inch wide by 10inch high.

    I'm looking for a fuel tank for the trike. I was looking for one of
    them air brake tanks from a lorry type thing

    Bollocks, think "radius" not diameter!

    16.65 Litres, which sounds *much* more like it!

    wessie Guest

    Dan White emerged from their own little world to say
    radius is half the diameter

    hope all your calculations are incorrect by a factor of 4 :)

    What about you using Google to find an online volume calculator, FFS?

    I have tried but all the ones I found seem to just convert one
    measurement to another.

    IE: Gallons to Liters, if you know of one I'd be grateful. But then I
    see no real problem asking for help here as that's what groups are all
    about

    Seems a lot for a tank a foot and a half by a foot square.

    You sure?
