Let (ρ,z,ϕ) be the cylindrical coordinate of a point (x,y,z). Let r be the radius and h be the height. Then z∈[0,h],ϕ∈[0,2π],ρ∈[0,rz/h]. The volume is given by
∭CdV=∫2π0∫h0∫rz/h0ρdρdzdϕ=2π∫h0ρ22∣∣∣rz/h0dz=π∫h0r2z2h2dz=πr2h2h33=πr2h3
as desired.
Your integral gives the volume of the inverse of a cone. That is, the part of a cylinder remained when a cone is removed from it.
