Enter the ice volume (in^3) into the Ice to Water Volume Calculator. The calculator will evaluate and display the Water Volume from Ice Volume. 

Water Volume from Ice Volume Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the Water Volume from Ice Volume. 

WV = IV * .92
  • Where WV is the Water Volume from Ice Volume (in^3)
  • IV is the ice volume (in^3) 

To calculate water volume from ice volume, multiply the ice volume by 92 percent, or .92.

How to Calculate Water Volume from Ice Volume?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Water Volume from Ice Volume.

Example Problem #1:

  1. First, determine the ice volume (in^3).
    1. The ice volume (in^3) is given as: 30.
  2. Finally, calculate the Water Volume from Ice Volume using the equation above: 

WV = IV * .92

The values given above are inserted into the equation below:

WV = 30 * .92 = 27.6 (in^3)

Example Problem #2: 

The variables needed for this problem are provided below:

ice volume (in^3) = 55

Entering these values and solving gives:

WV = 27.6 * .92 = 25.392 (in^3)
