Hi all
When I use the mass property on a part, the calculation of the volume of the part is not good, example for: for a tank of 1000mmx 1000mm, height 1000mm it tells me that 27 liter?
Try on other parts, the result of the volume always wrong.? I insert a screenshot.
Thank you for your answers.

Because the calculated volume is that of the solid of the tank itself (i.e.: the volume of the tank walls).
Not the interior volume defined by the tank.
To get the inner volume you can create a full cube of 1000x1000x1000, uncheck "Merge result", then use the Combine > Subtract > Select 2 bodies function.
Hello
You cannot mix the units. mm and grams
If you don't put any material you will have the volume 1000mm x 1000mm x 1000mm = 1m3 (after conversion mm to M)
The calculation is just Mass/Density = Volume. A kilo of uranium takes up less space than a kilo of balsa.
That's quite a dense answer ;-) You will see with steel (16NiCr4) the answer is nickel chromium
Kind regards
