1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
In a course I am studying, I have been asked to calculate the distributed parameters of a line whose Pi model has been provided. I simply quote the question here for clarity of my question:

2. Relevant equations

$$C = \frac{{2\pi \varepsilon }}{{\ln \frac{b}{a}}}$$
$$R = \frac{1}{{2\pi {\sigma}{\delta _s}}}\left( {\frac{1}{a} + \frac{1}{b}} \right)$$
$$L = \frac{\mu }{{2\pi }}\ln \frac{b}{a}$$
$$\tan \delta = \frac{G}{{\omega C}}$$

3. The attempt at a solution

I was hoping to use above equation to solve the problem but then I realised the conductor material i.e. its conductivity, permeability, etc. is missing. Therefore all above equations would be of no use in this case.

Now the question that I can not get my head around it, is what approach will get me from lump Pi model parameters to line distributed parameters? Note that I am looking for guidelines, not the actual solution.

Thanks
