POTE generator: ~10/9 = 185.885
Considered below are sentinel, secant, diesic, infraorwell, pentaorwell, triskaidekic, and philips.

==11-limit==
Sentinel tempers out [[3645/3584]] and may be described as the {{nowrap| 14 & 17 }} temperament. It is related to [[squares]], but the mappings differ for the [[5/1|5th harmonic]]. Like squares, it splits the [[6/1|6th harmonic]] into four subminor sixths of 11/7~14/9 (or splits a perfect eleventh into four supermajor thirds of 9/7~14/11), and uses it for a generator; its [[ploidacot]] is beta-tetracot. However, the 5th harmonic is found by -15 generator steps instead of +16 as in squares.
Commas: 441/440, 1344/1331, 1728/1715


POTE genertor: ~10/9 = 185.962
As one might expect, [[31edo]] is a good tuning for this temperament, in which case it is identical to squares. Among the alternatives are [[48edo]] and [[79edo]], both in their [[patent val]]s.

Secant, the {{nowrap| 26 & 58 }} temperament, is generated by a slightly sharp ~10/9, seven of which plus a semi-octave period give the [[3/1|3rd harmonic]]. Its ploidacot is diploid alpha-heptacot. [[58edo]], [[84edo]] and [[142edo]] all make for excellent tunings.

== Infraorwell ==
Infraorwell may be described as the {{nowrap| 49 & 58 }} temperament. It is generated by a ~7/6, less sharp than the generator of [[orwell]] but still sharp of just, so that three generators make a ~8/5, but seven generators does not give the [[3/1|3rd harmonic]]. Instead, sixteen generators give the [[12/1|12th harmonic]]; the ploidacot for this temperament is therefore gamma-16-cot. [[58edo]] makes for a recommendable tuning, though [[49edo]] and [[67edo]] are among the possibilities.

This is a list showing technical temperament data. For an explanation of what information is shown here, you may look at the technical data guide for regular temperaments.

This is a collection of rank-2 temperaments that temper out the orwellisma (monzo[6 3 -1 -3, ratio: 1728/1715).

Temperaments discussed elsewhere are:

Considered below are sentinel, secant, diesic, infraorwell, pentaorwell, triskaidekic, and philips.

Sentinel

For the 5-limit version, see Miscellaneous 5-limit temperaments #Sentinel.

Sentinel tempers out 3645/3584 and may be described as the 14 & 17 temperament. It is related to squares, but the mappings differ for the 5th harmonic. Like squares, it splits the 6th harmonic into four subminor sixths of 11/7~14/9 (or splits a perfect eleventh into four supermajor thirds of 9/7~14/11), and uses it for a generator; its ploidacot is beta-tetracot. However, the 5th harmonic is found by -15 generator steps instead of +16 as in squares.

As one might expect, 31edo is a good tuning for this temperament, in which case it is identical to squares. Among the alternatives are 48edo and 79edo, both in their patent vals.

Secant

Secant, the 26 & 58 temperament, is generated by a slightly sharp ~10/9, seven of which plus a semi-octave period give the 3rd harmonic. Its ploidacot is diploid alpha-heptacot. 58edo, 84edo and 142edo all make for excellent tunings.

Diesic

For the 5-limit version, see Miscellaneous 5-limit temperaments #Diesic.

Diesic is generated by a diesis-sized interval of ~36/35, hence the name. It may be described as the 31 & 32c temperament. It is related to slender, both sharing the ploidacot of omega-13-cot, but the mappings differ for the 5th harmonic.

Infraorwell

Infraorwell may be described as the 49 & 58 temperament. It is generated by a ~7/6, less sharp than the generator of orwell but still sharp of just, so that three generators make a ~8/5, but seven generators does not give the 3rd harmonic. Instead, sixteen generators give the 12th harmonic; the ploidacot for this temperament is therefore gamma-16-cot. 58edo makes for a recommendable tuning, though 49edo and 67edo are among the possibilities.
