To find the volume of a cylinder you need to use (Pi) 3.14159 times the radius squared times the length then divide by 231 if the piping is in inches or times by 7.48 if the cylinder is in feet
The only time height is a concern is if your you're going to figure static head or force
The volume does not change if it is a cylinder standing straight up or on its side

How do you calculate volume of water in a pipe?
measure the radius of the pipe. (half the diameter - the width of the pipe) then measure the length of the pipe. then use the formula pi (3.14) x radius2 x length. the answer is the volume in the pipe
How do you calculate pipe volume?
When you calculate the volume of pipe(or cylinder, as I prefer calling it), you need to know 2 things; the height of the cylinder and the radius of the circle(base of the cylinder). Then you use this formula; hpr^2 (height * pi * radius)
How to calculate Volume of natural gas in pipe?
You need the inside radius (1/2 the inside diameter) of the pipe and the pipe's length. Then, use this formula:Volume = Pi x r2 x length
How do you calculate the volume of oil in a pipeline?
If we assume that the pipe is completely full of oil, it would just be the volume of the pipe = pi * r2 * l, where pi = 3.14159, r = radius, and l = length of the pipe. If the pipe is not full, then multiply the volume by the percentage of oil in the pipe. For example, if 50% full, then multiply by .5. If the pipe bends, take into account the different volume of the bend. If the bend is 90 degrees, this can be accomplished by taking the average length of the two bent segments for the length.
How many gallons in a pipe 4 feet diameter by 6 feet long?
Use the formula for a cylinder to calculate the volume. This volume will be in cubic feet; you can then convert that to gallons.
How do you calculate Volume of Pipe Tee?
267
How it calculate pipe volume?
Use the formula for a cylinder.
How do you calculate volume of water in a pipe?

How do we calculate 700metre pipe volume?
This cannot be done without knowing both the width and length of pipe.
How do you calculate the buoyancy of pipe HDPE pipe?
Go to: http://www.techcalcs.com/calculators/pipeprop.php and use the calculator Otherwise calculate the volume displaced by the pipe and multiply by the density of the displaced water. This gives the bouyancy of the pipe
How do you calculate pipe volume?

How do you calculate liters of water in a pipe?
Find the volume in cubic feet and multiply by 7.48
How do you calculate the volume of water in a pipe?
You need to know the radius (1/2 the inside diameter) and the length of the pipe. Then, you use this formula to calculate the volume:Pi (3.1416) x r2 x length
How do you calculate the weight of galvanized steel pipe?
Ignore the zinc content. Just calculate the volume of steel in the given type (e.g schedule 40), size and length of pipe and multiply by the density of that grade of steel.
What is the density of a metal pipe?
Well, first you need to gather more information. Density= Mass/Volume, so you will need to find the mass in grams of this metal pipe and then calculate the volume. I am assuming that the pipe is going to be a nice even cylinder, so use the circular cylinder volume formula. Then, divide mass/volume, and your answer will be in g/cm3.
