Ice Rink Volume Calculator
Ice Rink Volume refers to the total amount of space (measured in cubic units) occupied by the ice surface in an ice rink. This volume is determined based on the dimensions of the rink and the thickness of the ice layer.
In most cases, the volume is measured in cubic meters (m³) or cubic feet (ft³) and is critical for understanding the quantity of water required to create the ice, as well as for maintaining and managing the rink efficiently.
Example Calculation
For a standard NHL-sized ice rink:
- Length: 200 feet
- Width: 85 feet
- Thickness: 1 inch (converted to feet:1/12 Feet)
- Convert thickness to feet: 1 inch=1/12 feet=0.0833 feet
- Calculate volume: Volume=200 ft×85 ft×0.0833 ft=1,416.7 cubic feet
For water, 1 cubic foot equals approximately 7.48 gallons, so:
Water required=1,416.7 cubic feet×7.48 gallons/cubic foot=10,602.8 gallons
