It depends on the diameter and length of the tank, as well as the shape and the position or pitch of the tank. Assuming this 550 gallon tank is a 36" diameter x 125" long horizontal cylinder, the volume of a particular depth can be figured by the following formula:
[(r x r) /(2 (a - sina)) x l )] /230.9 = volume in gallons if h < r
a = ((inverse cos(r-h/r)) x 2 ; Angle created by the chord (2 x sin(1/2a))
h = depth in inches (less than r)
r = radius of the tank in inches
l = length of the tank in inches
230.9 = volume in cu. in. of 1 gallon
so for 1 inch depth in this particular tank r-h =17;inverse cos(17/18) = inv.cos.9444 = 19.19; a = 38.38 degrees;l=125; r=18 ; h=1
plugging these into the formula we get:
[(18 x 18) /(2(38.38 - sin(38.38))) x 125] /230.9
= [(324)/(2(38.38 - 0.6209)) x 125 ] / 230.9
= [324/(2(37.7590)) x 125] / 230.9
= (324/ 75.518) x 125/ 230.9
= 4.29 x 125 / 230.9
= 536.25 / 230.9
= 2.322 gallons
**as h increases the volume per inch increases, so the volume needs to be calculated for each measurement. If h > r then substituting (diameter-h) in this formula for h then subtracting the result from [.7854(d x d) x l] / 230.9 will get you the greater volume.

How many gallons is 1 inch of rain to a acre?
Well, you know there are 43,560 square feet in an acre, and you know there are 12 inches to a foot. The next clue you need is a conversion factor from volume in gallons to the units of area, which in this case is inches; so, there are 231 cubic inches to a gallon. You now have all the information you need to algebraically determine the number of gallons in an acre inch.
One inch of rain equals how many gallons of water over 100 acres of land?
One inch of rain over 100 acres of land would equal about 27.1 million gallons of water. This calculation is found by multiplying the acreage (100 acres) by the volume of water in one inch of rain (27,154 gallons per acre-inch).
How many gallons of water equals four inches of rain on an acre?
One inch of rainfall on one acre is equivalent to 27,154 gallons of water. Therefore, four inches of rain on an acre would be equal to 108,616 gallons of water.

How many gallons of fuel oil does one inch equal in a 1000 gallon fuel tank?
Here is a tank chart that should help. Generally, the oil tank has a bit of "headroom" at the top, so, for example, a 275 gallon tank only holds about 256 gallons of useable fuel. Check with your local fuel company to determine the useable fuel volume your tank contains. http://www.sippin.com/oil%20tank%20measure%20chart.htm
