Are you trying to insert them into the center of the cylinder, or the annular region? For the center of the cylinder, see the examples for how to use insert/stream or insert/rate_region. For the annular region, I would create an annular plate and use the insert/stream. See the tutorial I posted on 6/24/13 for an example involving an annular shear cell.
