18edf corresponds to [[31edo]] with an [[octave stretching]] of about 9 [[cent]]s. Consequently, it does not provide 31edo's good approximations of most low harmonics, but it provides good approximations to many simple ratios in the thirds region: subminor [[7/6]] (+6{{cent}}), minor [[6/5]] (-3{{cent}}), neutral [[11/9]] (+4{{cent}}), major [[5/4]] (+4{{cent}}), and supermajor [[9/7]] (-6{{cent}}). These intervals may be used to form a variety of [[triad]]s and [[tetrad]]s in close harmony along with the tuning's pure fifth.
In comparison, [[20edf]] (and [[Carlos Gamma]]) offers more accurate pental (minor and major) and undecimal (neutral) thirds, but less accurate septimal (subminor and supermajor) thirds.
=== Regular temperaments ===
18edf is related to the [[regular temperament]] which [[tempering out|tempers out]] 2401/2400 and 8589934592/8544921875 in the [[7-limit]]; with 5632/5625, 46656/46585, and 166698/166375 in the [[11-limit]], which is supported by [[31edo]], [[369edo]], [[400edo]], [[431edo]], and [[462edo]].

Since 18 factors into primes as {{nowrap| 2 × 3<sup>2</sup> }}, 18edf has subset edfs {{EDs|equave=f| 2, 3, 6, and 9 }}.
