Volume, ft3 = 30 (0.219248x 60 - 3.464x 2)
Volume, ft3 = 30 x 9.827
Volume = 294 ft3
To convert volume, ftr, to barrels,multiply by 0.l7gl.
To convert volume, ft3. to gallons, multiply by 7.4g05.
Therefore, 2 feet of fluid in this tank would result in:
Volume, bbl = 294 ft3 x 0.1781
Volume = 52.36bbl
NorE: This is only applicableuntil the tank is half full (r - h). After that,
calculatetotal volume of the tank and subtract the empty space.
The empty spacecan be calculatedby h = height of empty space.
