Worked Example

Auto-generated from the tool's current default or entered inputs.

Example Inputs

Radius m: 1.5
Diameter m: 3.0
Liquid height m: 2.0
Base area m2: 7.0685834705770345
Volume m3: 14.137166941154069
Volume liters: 14137.16694115407
Volume gallons us: 3734.6461654494674

Expected Outputs

Radius m: 1.5
Diameter m: 3
Liquid height m: 2
Base area m2: 7.068583

Interpretation

Radius m is 1.5. Use this as a decision input, not as a standalone conclusion.
Diameter m is 3.0. Use this as a decision input, not as a standalone conclusion.
Liquid height m is 2.0. Use this as a decision input, not as a standalone conclusion.
Cross-check the result against one alternate input set to validate sensitivity.
