Perhaps I'm confused but it seems to me the for loop is wrong.

Don't you want something like:

def f3(x,y,z):
   tempval = 0.*x
   for t in range(numT):
     tempval += f1(x,y,z,t) * f2(y,z,t)
   return tempval

Instead?

Not that I've tried this, but so long as the function will
work given 3-d arrays for x,y,z, it should. (though the dependence
on numT as a global is a bit worrisome)
