    The document describes the results of calculations to determine the capacity of a cylindrical silo with a converging wall hopper. It provides the dimensions of the silo, including its diameter, outlet diameter, strake height, and hopper height. It then lists the calculated total volume of the silo, capacity volume allowing for compaction and overrun, volume of product in repose and vertical sections. It concludes by estimating the hopper angle and listing the total potential product mass and volume of the hopper that can be stored in the silo.
