Cylinder Volume Calculator

Calculate cylinder volume from radius and height, plus base area, lateral area, and total surface area in your chosen units.

Volume
37.699112 m³
Base area
12.566371 m²
Lateral area
37.699112 m²
Total surface area
62.831853 m²

How the calculation works

Volume V = πr²h. Base area A = πr², lateral area S = 2πrh, and total surface area S = 2πr(h + r).

Inputs

  • Radius
  • Height
  • Length unit

Calculation details

The radius is half the diameter. Enter radius and height in the same length unit. For example, r = 2 m and h = 3 m give V = 12π ≈ 37.699112 m³.

This models a right circular cylinder. To find a container's capacity, use its internal radius and usable height, excluding wall thickness.
