The Volume of a Cylinder calculator computes the volume of a right circular cylinder from the height (h) and radius (r).
INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:
- (r) Radius of Cylinder
- (h) Height of Cylinder
Volume of a Cylinder (V): The calculator returns the volume (V) in cubic meters. However, this can be automatically converted to many other volume units (e.g. cubic inches) via the pull-down menu.
The Math
The formula for the volume of a cylinder is:
V = π•r²•h
where:
- V is the volume of the cylinder
- r is the Radius of the cylinder .
- h is the Height of the cylinder.
