There is a web based calculator at http://www.pcb-designer.com in the PCB
Data section. It is based on the GE nomographs that IPC uses in their
standards, and so are pretty conservative, but I have a reference section
that shows the formula if you want to "tweak" it.

Subject: [DC] Calculate trace width
Is there any way to calculate trace widths for high current 8-10 amps?
Current this high is off most of the charts that is usually used for
this reference.
Thanks,
