Revision as of 19:46, 24 April 2013

Trical is a calendar based on powers of three.

Trical units of time, provisional names
Unit	Definition	Equivalence	SI equivalence
second			24×60×60/3¹⁰ = 86400/59049 = ca. 1.463 SI seconds
moment	3 seconds
instant	3 moments	9 s
minute	3 instants	27 s	ca. 40 s
dim	3 minutes	81 s	ca. 2 min
egg	3 dims	9 min	ca. 6 min
take	3 eggs	27 min	ca. 18 min
hour	3 takes	81 min	8/9 h
watch	3 hours	243 min	160 min
shift	3 watches	9 h	8 h
day	3 shifts	27 h	86400 s
trip	3 days	81 h
week	3 trips	9 d	> 1 week
month	3 weeks	27 d	< 1 month
season	3 months	81 d	< 1 quarter
triad	3 seasons	243 d
jear	3 triads	729 d	ca. 2 years

Leap rule

3^6 = 729 = 2*364.5

(2*729+3) / 4 = 365.25

After every two jears there is a leap trip (3 days), but not always …
