fsolve in a for loop

I am trying an analytical solution from nonlinear equation for a transient temperature problem. I call the function as
fun = @funhouse;
x0 = [1,1]';
options = optimoptions('fsolve','Display','iter');
[x,fval] = fsolve(@funhouse,x0,options);
And the function is
function F = funhouse(x,Tain)
Ts=18+273;% in K
Ca=11918;% kJ/K
Hae=52.33;%W/K
Hame=41.26;%W/K
Has=87.43;%W/K
Hag=15.54;%W/K
Htot=Hae+Hame+Has+Hag;
tao=17;%W/K
Te=10+273;
t=1;
tao=17;
%FUNHOUSE Summary of this function goes here
% Detailed explanation goes here
F = [x(1)-Ca*(x(2)-Tain)-Hae*(x(2)-Te)-Hame*(x(2)-Te)-Hag*(x(2)-Te)-Has*(x(2)-Te);
x(2)-(Tain-(x(1)/Htot)-(Htot-Has)*Te/Htot-Has*Ts/Htot)*exp(-t/tao)-(x(1)+(Htot-Has)*Te+Has*Ts)/Htot];
end
How to pass Tain as the last value found from the fsolve to the next iteration and save the output in an array.

Modified code to fix Tenv(i) to pass to the funh.m
________________________________________
clear clc Ta=zeros(1,25); t=1; Ta(1)=16+273; Te=[9 12 10 10 18 18 11 11 11 11 12 16 16 18 18 20 20 15 15 13 13 12 12 10 9 9 12 10 10 10 10 11 11 11 11 12 16 16 18 18 20 20 15 15 13 13 12 12 10 9 9 12 10 10 10 10 11 11 11 11 12 16 16 18 18 20 20 15 15 13 13 12 12 10 9 9 12 10 10 10 10 11 11 11 11 12 16 16 18 18 20 20 15 15 13 13 12 12 10 9]'; P=ones(1,25); x0(2)=293; x0(1)=6; for i=2:100 % fun = @funh; Tain=Ta(i-1); Tenv(i)=Te(i)+273; options = optimoptions('fsolve','Display','iter') [xopt,Fval,exitflag] = fsolve(@(x)funh(x,Tain,Tenv(i)),x0,options) Ta(i) = xopt(2); % Tain=xopt(2); xsav(i,:) = xopt; end i=1:1:100; plot(i,xsav(:,1),i,xsav(:,2));
------------------- Now I am getting the Ta as almost constant for all iterations while the xsav(1) fluctuated to negative and positive values. The expected values should be positive real for xsav(1) while xsav(2) should give more fluctuation. @star strider I am not familiar with patternsearch and neither the Matlab help recognizes this.

Finally the loop has worked although I am getting exitflag 2 after each iteration. Don't know the significance yet.
See my Answer to your Question What does exitflag =2 mean for fsolve.
