Export the Imported body temperature mapped thermals

I have imported the body temepratures in to the static structural model. This imported temperature results i want to export in this format BFE,Node,Temp,Value. Currently i am doing Export as csv file, then read back the csv and write into the format i want.

Can we directly write the results in the format i requested?

In general no. There is not currently an API to get the raw data of the imported loads in the numerical format. You can write it to a text string in memory (no file) and parse it with python.
Another option is to do a dummy solution. You can use a command snippet to set D,ALL,ALL,0. This will set all DOF==0 for the total analysis.

You then have an .rst file and you can use DPF to extract the BFE values from the results file for any/all time steps, and format to input commands.

Last option would be to use DPF to also do the original mapping for you from the source data instead of mechanical imported load, which you seem to want to bypass in the end anyways.
