Michael pose la question : I have a storage tank that is 12' diameter x 22.5' high
it's capacity is 450 oil field barrels (42 gallon)
Which would hold 19,036 us gallons
I'm trying to find out how many inches it would take to make 1 barrel
I was able to get this far by using your volume calculator, but haven't been able to come up with the rest!
Thank you very much for your time, and I really appreciate this site and the tools you all have made available to everyone for free!
Hope to hear back from you soon and God bless you all!! Penny Nom lui répond. |

Barrels of oil |
2014-04-16 |

daryl pose la question : Looking for an accurate number to use when calculating barrels per inch in a a tank with the following dimensions:
Nominal diameter - 15'-6", nominal height - 16ft, nominal capacity - 500 barrels. These are commonly referred to as 500x16 tanks.
Currently we are using 2.6 barrels per inch. We need 180 barrels for a full load so I'm trying to figure out how many total inches I need to load 180 bbl. This has been a matter of debate for some time. Thanks for your help. Harley Weston lui répond. |

Relating volume to depth in a cylindrical container |
2007-04-19 |
|
Dan pose la question : I have a cylindrical polyethylene rain barrel 23" in diameter and 35" high. If I've calculated correctly thus far, its volume is:
14, 547.49 cubic inches (or 8.418686 cubic feet or 0.31 cubic yards)
and could, ideally, contain 62.6 gallons of rain water whose weight would be 525.32 lbs. (62.4 lbs./cubic foot X 8.418686).
I'm having difficulty relating inch depth markings on the side of the barrel to volume capacity; i.e., how many inches in depth
in a cylinder of the size given would = how many gallons (or quarts) of water. The barrel stands upright on its end and is, thus, 35" high
when oriented in this fashion, much as a 55-gallon oil drum appears when similarly stowed.

10 friends run into each other at a bar |
2006-08-19 |
|
Ken pose la question : 10 friends run into each other at a bar. We will name them A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I AND J.
They all leave at the same time heading for seperate bars. However, A runs into B, C runs into D, E runs into F, G runs into H and I runs into J. These five groups leave again and the same thing keeps happening, but each time running in to someone they have not run into before. How many bars will it take, with each person meeting the others only once, until all of them have met each other again? Chris Fisher lui répond. |

A perpendicular intersection of two barrel vaults |
2006-07-21 |
|
Neal pose la question : I'm wanting to build a series of architectural models of different roman and medieval buildings out of cardboard. Once I have perfected the models I want to print them out on card stock so that school kids (or anyone else) can make the buildings.
A feature of many of these models is the cross or groin vault (a perpendicular intersection of two barrel vaults).
A single barrel vault is easy to imagine as a plane (a rectangular piece of cardboard) that will be folded into a semi-circular arch.
The intersection of a second barrel vault and this one is presenting me with problems. The second plane needs to have an ellipse cut into it so that when it is folded into the arch, it will mate up with the curve of the first barrel vault.
Given that the two pieces of card have identical widths (and therefore identical arcs in cross section) is there a way to calculate the ellipse that needs to be cut so that it can be cut before the second arch is folded? Edward Doolittle lui répond. |

A bargin with the devil |
2001-03-21 |
|
DJ pose la question : There once was a boy who spent all his time dreaming about getting rich. " I would do anything to be rich". The devil, hearing this, appeared before the boy and offered to make him rich. "See that bridge?" said the devil. Just walk across and I will double your money you have now. In fact, each time you cross I will double your money. There is just one thing you must give me $24 after each crossing. The boy agreed. He crossed the bridge, stopped to count his money and, and sure enough, it had doubled. He paid the devil $24 and crossed again. Again his money doubled. He paid another $24 and crossed a third time. Again his money had doubled, but this time there was only $24 left which he had to pay the devil so he was left with nothing. The devil laughed and vanished. - How much money did the boy start with?
