Special properties

24 equal divisions of the perfect fifth (abbreviated 24edf or 24ed3/2) is a nonoctave tuning system that divides the interval of 3/2 into 24 equal parts of about 29.2 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of (3/2)1/24, or the 24th root of 3/2.

Theory

24edf is related to 41edo, but with the 3/2 rather than the 2/1 being just. The octave is about 0.8269 cents compressed. Like 41edo, 24edf is consistent to the 16-integer-limit.
