To calculate the capacity (volume) of the tub, you multiply the area by the height. Area is pi x r-squared = 3.1416 x 10-squared = 3.1416 x 100 = 314.16. Volume = 314.16 x 14 = 4398.24 cubic inches. There are 1728 cubic inches per cubic foot, so you divide 4398.24 by 1728 = 2.5452777 cubic feet.
The formula for the volume of a cylinder is pi times the radius squared times the height. Pir^2h
Given the information in the question, there is no need for any inequality. the flat surface can be described as an equality. Outer diameter = one and a half inches => outer radius = 0.75 inches. Inner diameter = three fourths inches => inner radius = 0.375 inches. Area = pi*(0.752 - 0.3752) square inches. So one possible set of inequalities is 0 < area < 1,000,000,000 sq inches!
2.96 cubic ft
That's a front-load washer with a capacity of 4.1 cubic feet.
2.8
2.2 cubic feet (effective radius allowing for agitator = 10 inches, depth 12 inches). I measured it today.
The recommended height for a washer standpipe is typically around 18-30 inches above the trap.
The standard height for a washer box is typically around 42 inches from the floor to the center of the box.
The recommended height for a washer outlet box is typically around 42 inches from the floor.
If you do not have your manual, you can calculate your washer capacity by following this equation.Ê Measure the radius of the tub; from the center of tub to the outside wall of the tub. Alternatively, measure the diameter and divide by 2. This is the radius.Ê Multiply the radius by the radius; note this is not the same as multiplying the radius by two. This is equivalent to the radius squared. Multiply the value from step 4 by the depth of the tub to find the cubic feet capacity of the washer. Multiply the radius squared from step 3 above by pi (3.14).
Since I'm buying a washer and dryer I had to calculate this myself ... The cubic feet of the Kenmore washer model 110 heavy duty is 2.8 cubic feet. Measured to the top water line 14.5 inches and using the radius of the tub of 10.375 inches.

However the drum is simply a cylinder and the volume of a cylinder is easy to figure out. Volume equals pie times radius squared times height. Don't panic I will do the math for you. Pie is 3.14. The radius as measured on my 82980120 washer is 10.5 (0.88feet) inches from edge of drum to center of agitator. Height is from the floor of the drum to the water line on the high setting, which is 14.75 inches (1.23 feet). So 3.14 X (0.88feet) squared times (1.23 feet) equals 2.99 cubic feet capacity. So it is roughly a three cubic foot washer.
The recommended washer drain height for proper installation and functionality is typically around 30 inches above the floor level.
