Expansion Tank Sizing

Anyone know where to find the volume of water in a newer style cast iron radiator, large tube, 4 tubes per section, 36" high, 6 sections? Thanks.

    Forget the reference to "newer style"---that is confusing.

    Bill, on page 59 of the Burnham Heating Hepler, water volumes are listed. Your radiator is rated at 25.5 sq ft EDR. The volume is .103 gallons / sq ft or 26.26 gallons per radiator.
