Hollow Cylinder Volume Calculator
Result
Calculate material volume from Outer radius R, Inner radius r, Height h.
Formula
- Enter Outer radius R, Inner radius r, Height h using consistent units. This tool calculates material volume as pi × (R² − r²) × h. Inputs must be valid nonnegative dimensions; zero may represent a degenerate shape. For a hollow cylinder, outer radius must be greater than or equal to inner radius.
- The main inputs are Outer radius R, Inner radius r, Height h. Enter them in the units and format shown in the calculator.
- Keep comparable quantities in compatible units whenever the formula combines or compares them.
- Changing any input above recalculates the result with the same calculation engine used by this page.
Example: Hollow Cylinder Volume
- Outer radius R: 5
- Inner radius r: 3
- Height h: 10
Using Outer radius R = 5, Inner radius r = 3, Height h = 10, the calculated result is Material volume: 502.654824574.
