## 18.7. User Fortran in ANSYS Workbench

Simulations using User Fortran can be run within ANSYS Workbench. However, the use of User Fortran for Remote Solve Manager runs is unsupported (although it may work if the file paths for external files on the remote machine are the same as on the machine that sets up the case). For details, see Using CFX with the Remote Solve Manager in the CFX Introduction.

If you set user parameters in the USER command language object (see User Parameters) that include file or directory paths, then these can be automatically updated by Workbench when files are copied for Remote Solve Manager runs or for archiving purposes. This requires you add an additional user parameter "Workbench Path Parameters" which is set to a comma-separated list of all parameter names that should be automatically updated by Workbench.

For example, if you have a CCL file containing user parameters such as the following:

    USER:
      Input File 1 = /home/cfxuser/u_profile.dat
      Input File 2 = /home/cfxuser/v_profile.dat
      InletTemperature = 300
      Workbench Path Parameters = Input File 1, Input File 2
    END

then the paths given in "Input File 1" and "Input File 2" will automatically be updated and the referenced files copied and made available for RSM runs and archiving.
