Calculate spherical cap radius, volume, surface area, calotte area using simple spherical cap calculator online.

Radius, Volume, Surface Area, Calotte Area of a Spherical Cap Calculation

Formula:

Spherical cap radius (a) = √ h × ( 2 × r - h )
Surface area (A) = π × ( 2 × r × h + a² )
Calotte area (AC) = 2 × π × r × h
Volume (V) = h² × π / 3 × ( 3 × r - h )

Where,
π = 3.141592654

What is a Spherical Cap?

A spherical cap has a circular base and a dome that is flatter than a hemispherical dome.
