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.

FAQs

How do I find cubic inches of a cylinder given the diameter and height?

To find the volume of a cylinder in cubic inches, given the diameter and height:

  1. Divide cylinder diameter by two, and then square the number;
  2. Take the number you calculated in step 1, and multiply it by cylinder height and pi;
  3. If your parameters were in a different unit than inches before computing the volume, convert the result in cubic inches by multiplying it with the appropriate conversion factor; and
  4. That's it! You now know how to calculate the cubic inches of a cylinder, given the diameter and height.

How do I calculate volume of a hollow cylinder?

To find volume of a hollow cylinder in cubic inches, you need to:

  1. Subtract squared internal radius from squared external radius;
  2. Take the number in step 1 and multiply it by pi and the height of a cylinder;
  3. That's it! You have calculated the volume of a hollow cylinder.
