Abstract
Many authors at criticizing the conventional explanation of aerodynamic lift based on Bernoulli's law commit the same mistake laying within the scope of mechanics and ignoring the effects of viscosity in the generation of forces. Because it is an irreversible process, we affirm that it is not possible to generate lift without increasing entropy. And for an increase of entropy it must be considered the viscosity and vorticity.
