Torus Calculation

Calculator and formulas for calculating a torus


A torus is a solid in geometry. It is a round, bulging surface with a hole, so it has the shape of a lifebelt or donut.

The radius R is the distance from the center of the tube to the center of the torus, r is the radius of the tube. D is the outside diameter of the ring and d is the diameter of the hole.

To calculate the torus, enter the radii or diameters. Then click on the 'Calculate' button

Formulas for the torus


Volume (\(\small{V}\))

\(\displaystyle V= 2 \cdot π^2 \cdot R \cdot r^2\)

Surface (\(\small{S}\))

\(\displaystyle S=4 \cdot π^2 \cdot R \cdot r \)

Short diameter (\(\small{d}\))

\(\displaystyle d = 2 \cdot (R - r)\)

Long diameter (\(\small{D}\))

\(\displaystyle d = 2 \cdot (R - r)\)

Small radius (\(\small{r}\))

\(\displaystyle r = \frac{D - d}{4}\)

Large radius (\(\small{R}\))

\(\displaystyle R = \frac{D}{2} - r\)
