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 page collects rank-2 temperaments with a period that is 1/31 of an octave.

By the 31-3-comma is meant 617673396283947/562949953421312 = [-49 31, the amount (160.605 cents) by which 31 just perfect fifths (3/2) exceed 18 octaves. This may not seem like much of a comma, but since 31edo is such a strong 7-limit system, 11- and 13-limit temperaments based on the cycle of 31 fifths actually make sense. This approach leads to the prajapati temperament and the gallium temperament.

31edo is accurate for harmonics 5 and 7, the 31-5-comma ([72 0 -31, the amount by which 31 just major thirds (5/4) fall short of 10 octaves) and the 31-7-comma ([-87 0 0 31, the amount by which 31 septimal whole tones (8/7) fall short of 6 octaves) is tempered out by the following ETs: 31, 62, 93, 124, 155, 186, 217, 248, 279, 310, 341, 372, 403, 434, 465, 496, and 527. Tempering out these commas leads to the birds temperament.
