A plot of the no-twos Z-function, in terms of which 13edt is the fourth no-twos zeta peak EDT.

13 equal divisions of the tritave (13edt) is the nonoctave tuning system derived by dividing the tritave (3/1) into 13 equal steps of 146.3 cents each, or the thirteenth root of 3. It is best known as the equal-tempered version of the Bohlen-Pierce scale.

13edt can be described as approximately 8.202edo. This implies that each step of 13edt can be approximated by 5 steps of 41edo.

In the 7-limit, it tempers out 245/243 and 3125/3087, the same commas as bohpier temperament. It is less impressive in higher prime limits, but makes for excellent no-twos 7-limit harmony. For higher limits, the multiples of 13 (26edt, 39edt and 52edt) come to the fore.
