    Exclamation Tank Calibration table, Formula to find volume from height

    Hello guys,
    attached is a fuel storage tank calibration table in dcm, cm, and mm and respective volumes.
    i need a formula to find volume from height.
    for example: after measuring tank with measuring tape i find the liquid height and want to find respective volume for that height based on calibration chart, instead i dont have to calculate manually checking all the time the calibration table.
    for example: i put the height like 2300 mm trying to find its volume on the tank, is there any formula to do so? sorry for my English, i hope i was clear
    thank you very much

    By Dcm it's decimeters, right?

    But when I charted the tank volume-vs-height data in A5:B156, I see that it's a strictly linear relationship? I mean that would make sense if you had straight sidewalls, but there isn't even a hook or curved section at the bottom for a dish or a cone. When I check the R2 of the linear regression, it was exactly 1! Although it doesn't start at the origin, that needs investigating.

    Linear equation in J8 given J6 in mm:
