You might want to use ContentService to get a reader on the node's content:

ContentReader cr = contentService.getReader(actionedUponNodeRef, ContentModel.PROP_CONTENT);

and then use the obtained ContentReader for further processing:

File f = new File("/var/tmp/foo.bar");
cr.getContent(f);

See http://dev.alfresco.com/resource/docs/java/repository/org/alfresco/service/cmr/repository/ContentService.html for full details 😎
