Here, "tempval" takes on a series of values during the for loop, then
"sum" is used on value from the final iteration of the loop.

Perhaps you want something like
    def f3(x, y, z):
        temps = []
        for t in range(numT):
            temps.append(f1(...) * f(...))
        return sum(temps, axis=3)
