(semiconvergent)
11 equal divisions of the tritave, perfect twelfth, or 3rd harmonic (abbreviated 11edt or 11ed3), is a nonoctave tuning system that divides the interval of 3/1 into 11 equal parts of about 173 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 31/11, or the 11th root of 3.
Theory
11edt can be seen as a very stretched version of 7edo, with octaves sharpened by 10.3 cents. The octave stretching makes the 3/2 perfect fifth in better tune, while preserving a just 3/1 tritave.
From a no-2 point of view, 11edt has a 5/3 major sixth that is 19.8 cents flat. However, 11edt has an extremely inaccurate seventh harmonic 7/1, which is off by almost half a step (or about a semitone), which causes it to temper out 49/45 in the 7-limit. 11edt is at the extreme end of arcturus temperament, defined by tempering out 15625/15309 in the 3.5.7 subgroup. It gives an equalized interpretation for the sub-arcturus mos scale.
The 11th harmonic, 11/1, only 1.6 cents flat, is very close to just. By exploiting the badly tuned seventh harmonic, 11edt tempers out 35/33 and 77/75 in the 11-limit. In the 3.5.11 subgroup, it tempers out 125/121.

Subsets and supersets
11edt is the fifth prime edt, following 7edt and before 13edt, so it does not contain any nontrivial subset edts.
