CSD16340 POWER LOSSES

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS40305, CSD16340Q3

I run the folloing WEBENCH design: 

http://webench.ti.com/webench5/power/webench5.cgi?VinMin=11&VinMax=13&O1V=5&O1I=15&base_pn=TPS40305&AppType=None&op_TA=30&lang_chosen=en_US&optfactor=3

According to the design given, M1 = M2 = CSD16340Q3.

According to the design given, total power dissipation of M1 and M2 are 2.47W and 1.15W respectively.

Target copper area is about 1/4 sqin

Do I need a heat sink?

How do I size the heat sink for the target design?
