What volume does an acre-inch represent?

An acre-inch is the volume covering one acre to a depth of one inch, equal to about 3,630 cubic feet.

What is the cor (Biblical) unit?

The cor is an ancient Biblical Hebrew dry volume unit, approximately equal to 220 liters, used historically for commodities like grain.

Can I directly compare acre-inch and cor volumes?

Since acre-inch measures liquid volume and cor measures dry volume, conversions are approximate and should be used with caution.

Analyzing storage capacities for agricultural ponds using historical volume comparisons.
Studying quantities of grain or commodities in the Hebrew Bible through volume conversion.
Supporting archaeological reconstruction of ancient storage and yield systems.

Tips & Best Practices

Be aware that cor is a dry volume measure while acre-inch measures liquid volume.
Consider historical context as the size of cor can vary depending on interpretation.
Use approximate values for comparative studies rather than precise engineering calculations.

Limitations

The conversion compares liquid volume to dry volume, which may not be directly equivalent.
Historical variations in the size of the cor affect exactness of conversions.
The tool provides approximate conversions based on average measures and may not reflect local differences.
