A while ago, while I was playing around with various habitat sizes in my head, I decided to make a little Excel spreadsheet where one can just enter the desired dimensions, G force on the surface and the width ratio of window panes vs land panes into and then Excel will automatically compute the resulting square km of livable area, the time for one full rotation, and a few other properties.
I'm going to attach the file, if anyone wants to play around with it a little. (To make a new row, just copy an existing one, paste it into an empty row and then change the blue values to your liking. The values in the red columns are computed automatically.)
EDIT: The file assumes that the colonies are closed cylinders.
