Hi Paul,
In your results node there is an export node. Add a data subnode to that. In that node, define the expression that you want to evaluate and export. What I did was leave 'points to evaluate in' at 'take from data set'. This will result in a table with one row per grid point, with its x- and y-position and the value at that position. You can import the generated file in matlab and interpolate it there to values at any x- and y- position (for example a uniformly distributed rectangular grid) using the 'griddata' function.
You can also interpolate to a rectangular grid while exporting but this leads to a loss of data.
