518 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 518edo or 518ed2), also called 518-tone equal temperament (518tet) or 518 equal temperament (518et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 518 equal parts of about 2.32 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/518, or the 518th root of 2.
518edo is consistent in the 15-odd-limit and is an exceptionally strong 2.3.11-subgroup tuning, where it tempers out the frameshift comma as well as the 37-11-comma.
In the 5-limit, it tempers out the counterschisma ([-69 45 -1⟩), and is a strong tuning for the counterschismic temperament hence. In the 7-limit, it tempers out 235298/234375, 420175/419904, 1959552/1953125, and 5250987/5242880 (mitonisma). In the 11-limit, it tempers out 5632/5625, 9801/9800, as well as being a tuning for loki.
In the 13-limit, 518edo tempers out 1001/1000, 4096/4095, 4459/4455, and it is a strong tuning for the 14th-octave silicon temperament.
The 518c val, ⟨518 821 1202 1454 1792], though less accurate, is of theoretical interest as well because it tunes quintilipyth and compass.
