I'm trying to figure out how many gallons a tank will hold. I've tried
googling with no help. The tank is 28" x 18" x 16" and it's supposed to
hold 35 gallons. It just seems too small to me. In comparison I have a
tank that measures 13" x 12" x 18" and I'm sure it only holds around 12
gallons. Any help is appreciated.

If it's water it holds 34.9 gallons.

35 gal is correct. 1 cu ft = 7.48 gallons

28x18x16 = 8064 cu in
8064 div by 1728 cu in per cu ft = 4.6 cu ft
4.6 cu ft x 7.48 gal/cu ft = 34.4 gal

13x12x18 = 2808
2808/1728 = 1.625
1.625 x 7.48 = 12.155 gal

RBM-

Both are correct...



~12.2 gallons & ~34.9 gallons

For reference the key for an easy calc is ...... 231 cubic inches per
gallon

12" x 13" x 18" = 2808 cbiuc inches

2808 cubic inches / 231 cubic inches per gallon = 12.2 gallons

You can do math using the google search field; in your case, it would be
"x cubic inches to gallons", where "x" is the product of 28x18x6.

To put this all into one line, you could use the following syntax:

(28 * 18 * 6 ) cubic inches to gallons

28/13 - ~2
18/12 - 1.5
16/18 - ~0.9

~2*1.5*~0.9 -- ~3-minus

12*3 ~= 35

tank that measures 13" x 12" x 18" and I'm sure it only holds around 12

First, the approximation:

The larger tank is about twice as long, and 1.5 times as wide, as the smaller one, while their
heights are about the same -- so one would expect that its capacity is about 2 x 1.5 = 3 times
that of the smaller tank. If the smaller one is around 12 gallons, you should expect the larger
one to be around 36, which matches well with the claimed size of 35.

Now the exact calculation:

28 x 18 x 16 = 8064 cubic inches. There are 12 x 12 x 12 = 1728 cubic inches in a cubic foot,
so 8064 cubic inches is 8064 / 1728 = 4.67 cubic feet.

One cubic foot is about 7.5 gallons, so 4.67 cubic feet = 35 gallons.

Your smaller tank is 13 x 12 x 18 = 2808 cubic inches = 1.625 cubic feet = 12.2 gallons.

the track. Dealers were mostly shipped on a random draw 'cuz they were
difficult to sell because weren't at all good on the highway and local
dealer was lucky that year ('68). Two years later still hadn't sold it

disaster as a highway car--so hyped up you could barely keep it running
at an idle; would be doing 50/60 by got to next stoplight w/o even
trying, and got about 5-8 mpg of high test. If you recall, the gas
filler cap was on the top of left fender; on the highway production
vehicles like my '69 it was a 2" pipe that ran vertically down to the
left end of the tank only taking up a little trunk room. On the NASCAR
version, it was a 4" pipe at a 45-deg angle straight to the middle of
the tank leaving no room for anything of any size; not even a spare
tire. They didn't keep it...

When I was in college I remember seeing the remains of a Dodge Charger
Daytona, the one with the wing. It looked so sad and lonely there in the
wrecking yard. Some kid had flipped it on the interstate highway at a
speed in excess of 150mph. I loved the big engine brutes which got no
gas mileage to brag about but gasoline was 22 cents a gallon so I didn't
mind. Our family cars at the time had engine sizes like 383, 389, 425
and 430. Mom wound up with a Lincoln with a 460 V8. ^_^

I find I can't do without Master Converter, which is a shareware program you can download for free:

Savard Software - Master Converter

Ignoring the dialogue box in the following screen capture, you just enter the amount in one set of units on the left side of the screen, and the program will automatically give you the equivalent in other units on the right side of the screen. You can enter the units you have as either a number or a formula that the program will evaluate.



The program has 42 different catagories; everything from length to luminescence to kinematic viscosity to capacitance to data transfer rate.

When I go to the "volume" category of my version of Master Converter and punch in 28*16*18 and highlight "cubic inches" on the left side, it tells me the equivalent volume on the right side is:

34.9090909... US gallons
29.06789701... Canadian gallons
132145.2841 cubic centimeters
4468.363636... fluid ounces
8936.727272... US tablespoons
etc. etc. etc.

And, referring to the screen capture, there actually is a unit of length called the "twip", and it's 1/1440th of an inch.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twip

It's a handy little program to keep on your desktop, and I find myself using it all the time.

Yeah, we thought nothing of it then...the 4dr got when sold the Charger
was a Buick Electra 225 w/ the 455 iirc...

The Charger actually was pretty good on mileage--we bought it to spec
and put in a gear ratio to bring rpm down some at highway speed--took
away a little of the acceleration performance, of course, but it was
still plenty enough. For the time it was a great Interstate road
car--not squishy soft suspension but still reasonably quiet. At the
time we were in Lynchburg and traveling to far SW KS regularly where
both sets of grandparents were--about 1550 mi trip before I81 was
finished from Roanoke to Knoxville and I40 ended at Crab Orchard Mtn w
of Knoxville across the Cumberlands and then dumped you in downtown
Nashville. Another uncompleted stretch thru AR hill country from just
west of Little Rock to nearly Ft Smith...

The bummer was the lead plugs that sealed machine holes in the Holley
split-barrel carb would get soft after two long days on road and in the
morning when cold they leaked. Had to reseat them w/ a small hammer the
second morning before heading out again...

It also developed some nasty electrical problems w/ time...

I'm trying to figure out how many gallons a tank will hold. I've tried

googling with no help. The tank is 28" x 18" x 16" and it's supposed to

hold 35 gallons. It just seems too small to me. In comparison I have a

tank that measures 13" x 12" x 18" and I'm sure it only holds around 12

gallons. Any help is appreciated.

If it's water it holds 34.9 gallons.

If it's anything it's 35 (US) gallons.

It took you a month to round 34.9 to 35?

Note that 1 gallon of gasoline is equal to 1.15 gallons of water :-)

A gallon is a gallon is a gallon no matter what you put into it.. *Now if
you're taking about volume or weight, that's a different story.

But then how much volume of salt can you add to a gallon of water and
still have only a gallong?

You obviously have a problem grasping the concept of volume, weight etc. It
might help you if you can answer this question:

Why is it that a pound of feathers (in a bag) will float in water but a
pound of cement will sink to the bottom?
MLD

Cement is heavier. You'd have to be dense to miss that.

Because the pound of feathers is attached to a duck...and everyone knows
ducks float?

If I believe you---a pound of cement is heavier than a pound of feathers!!!!
Are you really that dumb?

Hm-m-m, a duck in a bag?? How about all the feathers (in a bag) after they
have been removed from the duck??
