How To Calculate Water Tank Capacity & Size?

Underground Water Tank Size Calculation. Assuming we are going to construct a rectangular water tank with depth as 1 metre. We know volume formula, Volume = Area X Depth. Area of the tank = 1.35 / Depth = 1.35/1 = 1.35 m2 or square metre. Area of rectangular = Length X Breadth (Assuming L=2B) Therefore, 1.35 m2 = 2B X B. 1.35 = 2B2.

Domestic HW cyl selection guide

To heat 60 l from 10 °C to 60 °C with 8 kW HP takes (60*50)/(14.3*8) = 26.2 min so the second bath has again to be provided from storage. Assuming good stratification, in 25 minutes, volume of water heated to 60 °C = 14.3*8*25/50= 57.2 litres. Therefore, minimum storage capacity to meet requirement is 70 + 60 – 57.2 = 73 litres.

Design Considerations for Hot Water Plumbing

The most common type of water heater is a storage or tank type heater. The hot water in the storage tank is usually heated to a relatively high set temperature (usually between 140oF and 150oF) and kept ready for use in a tank. Hot water is drawn from the top of the tank and is replaced by cold water at the bottom.
