Dominant is a temperament tempering out the syntonic comma (81/80) and septimal comma (64/63) in the 7-limit. It also tempers out the septimal quartertone (36/35), as 36/35 = (64/63)(81/80). It is the unique temperament that identifies the harmonic seventh chord with the dominant seventh chord, which is a familiar feature from 12edo.
Other possible tunings include 17edo (17c val), 29edo (29cd val), 41edo (41cd val), 53edo (53cdd val), as well as Pythagorean tuning.
See Meantone family #Dominant for technical data.

Chords and harmony
Much of 12edo harmony can be used. Dominant enables chords of didymic and archytas.
