Air cooling, eh? It's not always the most aerodynamic option, but it has its place.

The above text has plenty of formulae for the simulation of heatsinks, but given the complexities of their geometry and the geometry of your air flow, I wouldn't even bother doing anything other than an instrumented build 'n' test.
