Why dos spinning the cylinder produces lift?

The friction between the fluid and the surface of the cylinder tends to drag the fluid near the surface in the same direction as the rotational motion. Superimposed on top of the usual nonspinning flow, this "extra" velocity contribution creates a higher-than-usual velocity at the top of the cylinder and a lower-than-usual velocity at the bottom. These velocities are assumed to be just outside the viscous boundary layer on the surface. From Bernoulli's equation as the velocity increases, the pressure decreases. the pressure on the top of the cylinder is lower than on the bottom, This pressure imbalance creates a net upward force, i.e., a finite lift.
