Why the time step could not be reduced?

When I use deltaT_CFD=2.5e-5s and deltaT_DEM=2.5e-7s, the case could run.
Part of the output info:

#cfd coupling
fix cfd all couple/cfd couple_every 100 mpi
nevery as specified in LIGGGHTS is overriden by calling external program (../cfd_datacoupling_mpi.cpp:77)
fix cfd2 all couple/cfd/force
restart ${restartstep} ../DEM/restart/liggghts_coupled.*
restart 800000 ../DEM/restart/liggghts_coupled.*

CFDEM compiling error

Hi everyone I have a problem compiling a cfdem case with my computer, I checked the files on another stronger computer and they're ok, but I think I'm missing something here. I'll appreciate any help of yours if you could tell me what is wrong.
mesh was built before - using old mesh
Decomposing case.

totalPressureDrop.m in ErgunTestMPI_*

Submitted by saatt on Fri, 03/06/2020 - 16:10

Hi
One question:
I found the difference of defination in totalPressureDrop.m of Tend in ErgunTestMPI_cgs with ErgunTestMPI_restart
In ErgunTestMPI_cgs is :
Tstart = 0;
Tend = t_sim(length(t_sim));
deltaU=(Uend-Ustart)/((Tend-Tstart)/timeStepSize);
-------------
In ErgunTestMPI_restart is :
Tstart = 0;
Tend = t_sim(length(t_sim))
Tend=0.1
deltaU=(Uend-Ustart)/((Tend-Tstart)/timeStepSize);
----------------

Compiling CFDEM with OpenFOAM-6 or OpenFOAM-7

Submitted by shyamnair555 on Mon, 02/24/2020 - 13:30

I'm new to CFDEM. So please forgive if this is a silly issue in compiling CFDEM.
Has anyone tried compiling CFDEM with the latest version of OF?

I know these versions are not supported. But I'd love to have CFDEM work with these versions rather than install other versions.
I'm have problem when running cfdemCompCFDEMsrc. Please find below the log file details:

rm: cannot remove 'log/log_compile_results_src_success': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove 'log/log_compile_results_src_fail': No such file or directory
