16 equal divisions of the perfect fifth (abbreviated 16edf or 16ed3/2) is a nonoctave tuning system that divides the interval of 3/2 into 16 equal parts of about 43.9 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of (3/2)1/16, or the 16th root of 3/2.
Theory
16edf corresponds to 27.3522…edo. It is similar to every third step of 82edo but not quite similar to 27edo; the octave is compressed by 15.45 ¢, a small but significant deviation. It contains good approximations of the 7th and 13th harmonics.
It serves as a good approximation to halftone temperament, containing the ~7/5 generator at 13 steps.
