20edf corresponds to 34.1902edo. It is closely related to [[Carlos Gamma]] and the [[gammic]] temperament, which adds an independent dimension for the [[2/1|octave]] (although strictly speaking, the "canonical" optimized Carlos Gamma tuning is not exactly 20edf, with its fifth stretched by the microscopic amount of 0.016{{c}}). It very accurately represents the intervals [[5/4]], with 11 steps, and [[17/16]], with 3 steps.
