Generation of lift is accompanied by a starting vortex at the trailing edge. If the flow is inviscid, this will not happen. What reason can best describe this?

Generation of lift is accompanied by a starting vortex at the trailing edge. If the flow is inviscid, this will not happen. What reason can best describe this? Correct Answer There is no boundary layer formation, hence no vorticity

For inviscid flows, the boundary layer is not formed. Therefore, in the regions of high velocity, high viscosity is not there and hence no vortex can form. Thus, there is no lift produced. Starting vortex cannot form in inviscid medium and in the viscous medium it dies due to viscosity.
