Which consequence results when the Navier-Stokes equations neglect fluid viscosity?

💡 Explanation

Neglecting viscosity means the Navier-Stokes equations cannot accurately model shear stresses, because viscosity defines internal friction. Therefore unrealistic drag coefficient predictions arise, rather than better boundary layer modeling or turbulence prediction which rely on viscous effects being present.
