to calculate a room's capacity is very simple. this is basically trying to find the 'volume' of the room. just multiply the height, the width, and the length together
To determine the appropriate air conditioner size for a room, you need to calculate the required capacity based on the room's square footage. The general rule is to have 20 BTUs (British Thermal Units) per square foot of space. To calculate the required capacity, multiply the square footage of the room by 20. For example, a room that is 300 square feet would need an air conditioner with a capacity of 6,000 BTUs.
You need to include the third dimension to calculate the cubic capacity of a room
The capacity of my fuel tank is 15 gallons
Autzen Stadium has a seating capacity of 54,000 people with standing room to accommodate 59,000 people.
Every single person will contribute to increasing the room temperature.

The room with the largest capacity for gassing at one time held up to about 2500 people.
A simple measurement of area(length X width) is all that is needed. This gives you the sq footage of the room. You would want to subtract any tables, chairs, or other areas people will not be able to stand in from the square footage. Once that is done divide by 36 (36sqft is a commonly used number for amount of space someone will need in a room...it is much larger than necessary, but gives room for people to walk around and get to the bathrooms, bar, etc). That will give you a pretty good measure of standing capacity.
Calculate the area of the room. Calculate the area of the window (or whatever opening) Room Area*100/Window Area
The Warsaw ghetto had a population capacity of 500,000 people, even though the population often exceeded it.____The term capacity is misleading unless one specifies the number of people per room.
To calculate the square footage of a room, you multiply the length of the room by the width of the room. This will give you the total area in square feet.
