Setting a Constant Temperature on Edge of Cylinder

Hello,

I am modeling the flow of a liquid in a pipe, with another liquid being injected and mixing, they are at different temperatures.

I imported a Rod I drew in Solid works, I'm injecting a fluid into the rod. The rod is a fluid but my understanding was I need to model it as a whole solid domain (Though this seems dubious to me).

When selecting the boundary conditions I would like the outer edge of the rod to be a constant temperature, but it appears it makes the entire rod always that temperature not just the outside. Do I need to create a very thin layer in my model on the outside of the rod? Or am I fundamentally doing this incorrectly?

Thanks.
