The 231 equal temperament divides the octave into 231 equal parts of 5.195 cents each.

In the 5-limit it tempers out the kleisma, 15625/15552, and in the 7-limit 1029/1024, so that it supports tritikleismic temperament, and in fact provides the optimal patent val. In the 11-limit it tempers out 385/384, 441/440 and 4000/3993, leading to 11-limit tritikleismic for which it also gives the optimal patent val.
231 years is the number of years in a 41 out of 231 leap week cycle, which corresponds to a 41 & 149 temperament tempering out 132055/131072, 166375/165888, and 2460375/2458624. This type of solar calendar leap rule scale may actually be of more use to harmony, since a 41 note subset mimics 41edo, a rather useful EDO harmonically, and it preserves the simple commas mentioned above - see here.
