OpenMC writes tally results into an auxiliary variable, which Aurora is currently:

  1. Converting from an auxvariable to a user object
  2. Converting from a user object to a function
  3. Converting from a function to a material
  4. Applying a material-based heat source

Steps 1-3 above could be replaced by just using the CoupledForce kernel directly. Image below provides more of a graphical depiction of the current transfers, which can be simplified.
