13edt divides the tritave (3/1) into 13 equal parts of 146.304 cents each, corresponding to 8.202edo. It is the equal-tempered version of the well-known Bohlen-Pierce scale. In the 7-limit, it tempers out 245/243 and 3125/3087, the same commas as bohpier temperament. It is less impressive in higher p-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.

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