Rectangular Pond Volume Calculator

Formula

To calculate the Rectangular Pond Volume (RPV):

\[ RPV = \frac{PL \times PW \times PD}{7.481} \]

Where:

\(RPV\) is the Rectangular Pond Volume (gallons)
\(PL\) is the pond length (ft)
\(PW\) is the pond width (ft)
\(PD\) is the pond depth (ft)

What is Rectangular Pond Volume?

The Rectangular Pond Volume (RPV) is the total volume of water that a rectangular pond can hold, measured in gallons. It is calculated by multiplying the pond's length, width, and depth, and then dividing by 7.481 to convert cubic feet to gallons.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Pond Length (\(PL\)) = 10 ft
Pond Width (\(PW\)) = 5 ft
Pond Depth (\(PD\)) = 4 ft

Using the formula:

\[ RPV = \frac{10 \times 5 \times 4}{7.481} = 26.73 \text{ gallons} \]

The pond volume is 26.74 gallons.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Pond Length (\(PL\)) = 15 ft
Pond Width (\(PW\)) = 8 ft
Pond Depth (\(PD\)) = 6 ft

Using the formula:

\[ RPV = \frac{15 \times 8 \times 6}{7.481} = 96.15 \text{ gallons} \]

The pond volume is 96.14 gallons.
