how can i estimate the total volume of a heap of granules including the air/water in between? i don't have physical access to them so i can't just pour them in a measuring cup.

going by the logic in pic related the heap could take up about 90% more volume than if you were to measure the displacement without the air in between? but that's presumably the worst case scenario since irl they wouldn't be perfectly stacked perfect spheres. what's a more reasonable estimate?
