How do I calculate volume of a cylinder in cubic inches?

Calculating the volume of a cylinder is relatively straightforward. First, make sure that all your parameters are in the same unit (e.g., inches) before calculating the volume. Then, utilize the following formula for cubic inches of a cylinder:

V = π · r² · h,

where:

V is cylinder volume;
r is cylinder radius; and
h is cylinder height.

Note that if your parameters were in a different unit than inches before computing the volume, take an extra step, and convert your result into cubic inches.
