The document provides an introduction to engineering calculations for chemical processes. It discusses key concepts such as units and dimensions, conversion of units between different systems, mass and volume relationships, flow rates, and chemical composition of mixtures. Specifically, it defines units and dimensions, and how they differ. It explains how to convert between different unit systems and perform dimensional analysis. It also discusses density and how it relates mass and volume. It introduces the concepts of mass flow rates and volumetric flow rates. Finally, it covers ways to express the composition of mixtures, including using mole fractions and mass fractions.
