contents In this study, we formulate a thermodynamically consistent rheological model for yield stress fluids by introducing an internal dynamic variable and extending the framework established by Kamani et al (2021) and the classical Oldroyd-B model. The dynamics of the internal variable capture the material's transient response to changes in deformation, characterized by an effective relaxation time, elastic modulus, and viscosity. To assess the model's validity and range of applicability, we compare it with the recently developed Kamani-Donley-Rogers (KDR) model in terms of various material and rheometric functions, highlighting both divergences and parallels between the two models. Our numerical results on a host of material functions and rheological parameters illustrate the practical applicability and advantages of the new thermodynamically consistent model over the KDR model. Specifically, the new model complies with the second law of thermodynamics and can describe a broader range of rheological properties of yield stress fluids.
