What are the instruments for measuring volume?

    If we talk about volume of an object then it is basically the space occupied by an object. Besides, we can say that for an object of specific length, width and thickness, the volume would be a product of all these features. This means that volume cannot normally be measured directly - it is measured or calculated only through indirect means. A graduated beaker, for example, measures the height of a column of liquid, and the markings on the beaker are calibrated for the specific cross sectional area of the beaker, thus giving you an indication of the volume of the liquid within the beaker. Volume can be calculated by knowing the dimensions and shape of the object being measured. The volume of an irregular solid can be measured by immersing the object in a liquid, and measuring the displacement of the liquid. There are devices such as fuel and water meters (like at a gas station pump) - that measures the flow of liquid through a chamber equipped with an impeller. As the liquid flows through the chamber, it spins the impeller, and by counting the revolutions of the impeller, the device can measure the volume of liquid that flowed through the chamber.
