I've started a quick and dirty excel based calculator (attached), just for schematic purposes, but I'm sure it can be extrapolated further. FYI, there may be a couple of quirks...

RETScreen definitely has a solar wall module.
There is also the SWIFT solar wall modelling software available here:

Good luck -- have had pretty good success on a couple of solar wall projects.
