LPG spherical tank issues

Thread Content

Could some expert please explain something about a spherical tank with a volume of 3,000 cubic meters and a diameter of 18 meters? What is the corresponding volume at a liquid level of 1 meter? Is there a formula to calculate it? That is, how is that volume table calculated?

The formula for the volume of a spherical cap is V=πh*(3r-h)/3. When calculating the volume of a spherical tank, it’s not possible to say that 1 meter corresponds to a specific volume; it’s a variable value, unlike the volume of a cylinder, where 1 meter corresponds to a fixed capacity.

Thank you, expert. I had never thought about this issue before.
