Calculate temperature-rise for DC/DC converter

Hi,
I need a DC/DC converter that converts 12V to 24V with an output current of about 1.5A. I was thinking about using this one:
S24SP24002PDFA -
http://www.deltaww.com/fileCenter/products/download/01/0102/datasheet/DS_S24SP24002.pdf
But I can't figure out how hot it's going to be at 1.5A output current. From the graph on the top right side on P3 of the datasheet I assume that the power dissipation will be about 3.5W. But I can't find a ThetaJ-A value or something else in °C/W (maybe i'm just overlooking it somehow). Or is there some other way to calculate the temperature rise?
Thanks,
Sebastian

)!
Thanks!
