The relevant context-property for it is tempoWholesPerMinute (which
can be set with \tempo ... )

The default is in performer-init.ly:
  %% quarter = 60
  tempoWholesPerMinute = #(ly:make-moment 15/1)

or you can read it out:

\score {
  { c'1 }
  \midi {
    \context Score
    \applyContext
      #(lambda (ctx) (display (ly:context-property ctx 'tempoWholesPerMinute)))
  }
}
--> #<Mom 15>
