SUMMARY
The non-slip condition is not applicable to inviscid fluids, as these fluids lack friction. In inviscid flow, there is no mechanism to create a non-slip condition, which is typically associated with viscous fluids. Instead, only the no penetration condition is relevant in this context. This distinction is crucial for understanding fluid dynamics in scenarios involving inviscid flow.
