Water Volume Formula:
From: | To: |
The water volume calculation determines the amount of water that can be contained in a rectangular space. It's essential for pool construction, water storage, irrigation planning, and various engineering applications.
The calculator uses the basic volume formula:
Where:
Explanation: The formula calculates the three-dimensional space occupied by water in a rectangular prism.
Details: Accurate volume calculation is crucial for proper water treatment, chemical dosing, pump sizing, and compliance with water regulations.
Tips: Enter all dimensions in meters. For irregular shapes, divide into rectangular sections and calculate each separately. All values must be positive numbers.
Q1: How do I convert cubic meters to liters?
A: Multiply cubic meters by 1000 (1 m³ = 1000 liters).
Q2: What if my pool has varying depths?
A: Use the average depth or calculate sections separately.
Q3: How accurate should my measurements be?
A: For most purposes, measurements to the nearest centimeter (0.01m) are sufficient.
Q4: Does this work for circular pools?
A: No, use π × radius² × depth for circular volumes.
Q5: What about water loss from evaporation?
A: This calculates total volume, not accounting for evaporation which depends on climate and surface area.
