Real quick example here. It uses a date object to add a unique URL
parameter to the end which should help with caching. No jQuery used, just
standard HTML. The querySelector call is *kinda* modern-ish only (see
caniuse.com for specifics) and could be replaced by
document.getElementById. Oh - and I used 3 seconds. You want to change that.

<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>My Page</title>
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
</head>
<body>

    <img src="sourceimage.jpg" width="300" height="300" id="theImage">

<script>
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {

    var img = document.querySelector("#theImage");
    var src = "./sourceimage.jpg";

    window.setInterval(function() {
        img.src = src + "?d=" + (new Date().getTime());
        console.log(img.src);
    },3000);

}, false);
</script>
</body>
</html>
