If the pipe is round, with a 55-foot diameter, and 36 inches long,
then its capacity is 53,317.3 gallons.
If the pipe is round, with a 36-inch diameter, and 55 feet long,
then its capacity is 2,908.2 gallons.
Either way, we have no way of knowing how much water is in it.
For all we know, it may even be empty.

To calculate the volume of a pipe in gallons per foot, you'll need to know the diameter of the pipe. Once you have that information, you can use the formula for the volume of a cylinder (πr²h) and convert the result from cubic inches to gallons.
36" pipe has several different standards for OD and wall thickness. What OD and wall thickness? A 36" diameter circle 12" long has a volume equivalent to 52.9 gallons.
A 3,095-foot pipe with an inside diameter of 36 inches has a volume of 163,650 gallons of water.
To calculate the volume of water in a pipe, first convert the diameter to feet (28 inches = 2.33 feet). Then use the formula for the volume of a cylinder (V = πr^2h) where r = radius (half the diameter) and h = height. For a 2.33-foot diameter pipe and 1 foot height, the volume is roughly 17.19 gallons of water per foot.
To convert the diameter of a 96-inch pipe to gallons per foot, we need to first calculate the cross-sectional area of the pipe (π * radius^2) and then multiply it by the length of the pipe in feet. You can then convert the volume to gallons using the appropriate conversion factor (231 cubic inches = 1 US gallon).
A 5-inch pipe will hold approximately 0.36 gallons of water per linear foot. This calculation is based on the formula for calculating the volume of a cylinder (V = πr^2h), where the radius (r) is half the diameter of the pipe (2.5 inches) and the height (h) is 1 foot.
Given what? I'll assume given the radius of the pipe (r) and the density of the fluid (p) in compatible units.GPF = p * PI * r2Of course, if the units on the density and the radius are not given in gallons per cubic foot and feet you will need to do unit conversions.
This pipe will hold 1,468.8 gallons of water.
