If you want to calculate it acurately and not just eyeball it, check the datasheets of the IC and heatsink, find the thermal conductivity of the different elements and construct a thermal circuit to check if the temperatures at the IC are between the allowable ranges given a known ambient temperature and the dissipated heat (20W)
