2. INTRODUCTION
The calculation of the liquid volume or wetted area of a partially
filled horizontal vessel is best performed in parts, by calculating the
value for the cylindrical section of the vessel and the heads of the

The wetted area is the area of contact between the liquid and the
wall of the tank. This is primary used in fire studies of process and

The wetted area calculated using this method does not include the
straight flange of the head. The length of the straight flange must be
included in the calculation of the wetted area of the cylindrical
section.

Bumped heads have the lowest cost but also the lowest design
Here we present formulae for calculated the wetted area and volume
for an arbitrary liquid level height in a single Bumped head.

The partially filled volume equation is an approximation, but will

Where the vessel has torispherical or ellipsoidal heads the straight
flange length of the head should be included in the cylindrical
section length when calculating the volume or surface area.
