In [[13-limit]] [[just intonation]], '''18/13''', the '''tridecimal augmented fourth''' is a '''low [[tritone]]''' measuring about 563.4¢. It represents the interval between the 13th and 18th harmonics of the [[overtone scales|harmonic series]].

The low tritone in [[17edo]] approximates 18/13 quite well, while 17edo's approximations of [[13/8]] and [[9/8]] are both a little sharp. The inversion of 18/13 is [[13/9]], a high tritone measuring about 636.6¢; the interval between these two tridecimal (13-based) tritones is 169/162, approximately 73.2¢.
