I think you're referring to browser cache, something that is outside
of control of openlayers code.
Simply speaking: a tile is an url requested via a GET, and if url
doesn't change, browser thinks (correctly, most of times) that
resource is the same.
The only way to address this issue is to make a different url: you can
do this calling explicitely HttpRequest.redraw(true):
