With the big duct on top the only choice on the top is in front of it. It might be interesting to try placing it on the face, above the door, to the right or left of the top of the arch. Compare readings in the two different locations.
 
i put it there ,but when fan kicks on temp on thermometer drops quickly.not sure if that would be accurate
Yes, that is likely to drop the reading 30-40ºC.
