Overview

Analyze an HTTP Cache-Control header to calculate browser and shared-cache TTLs, review stale budgets, detect directive conflicts, and compare static behavior notes for generic HTTP, Fastly, Cloudflare, and Akamai.

When to use

  • Check whether browser and CDN freshness periods match your caching requirements.
  • Compare max-age, s-maxage, stale-while-revalidate, and stale-if-error budgets with defined limits.
  • Investigate conflicting directives such as private, public, no-cache, and no-store.

How it works

  1. 1Enter a Cache-Control header, such as `public, max-age=60, s-maxage=600, stale-while-revalidate=30`.
  2. 2Select a CDN context or use Generic HTTP for a general analysis.
  3. 3Optionally enter browser TTL, edge TTL, and stale budgets in seconds.
  4. 4Review the calculated TTLs, stale windows, directive conflicts, and static CDN behavior notes.

Use cases

  • Validate cache headers for public web pages and APIs before deployment.
  • Set separate browser and edge freshness budgets for CDN-delivered content.
  • Review stale serving behavior and cache directive conflicts during performance or reliability audits.

Examples

1. Separate browser and edge freshness budgets

Web performance engineer

Background

A team serves public content with a short browser freshness period, a longer CDN edge period, and a limited stale-while-revalidate window.

Problem

They need to confirm that the Cache-Control values stay within their browser, edge, and stale budgets.

How to use

Enter the header and select Cloudflare, then provide the three optional budgets.

Cache-Control: `public, max-age=60, s-maxage=600, stale-while-revalidate=30`; CDN: Cloudflare; browser TTL budget: 120 seconds; edge TTL budget: 900 seconds; stale budget: 60 seconds.

Outcome

The analysis separates the browser and shared-cache TTLs, checks the stale window, and reports any conflicts or budget issues.

2. Check a no-cache response policy

API developer

Background

An API response is marked private and no-cache because it should not provide a normal freshness period for browser or shared caching.

Problem

The developer wants to verify that the policy produces no browser or edge freshness TTL.

How to use

FAQ

What input does this tool require?

Enter a Cache-Control header in the required text field.

What does max-age represent?

max-age specifies the freshness lifetime for browsers and other private caches, in seconds.

What does s-maxage represent?

s-maxage specifies the freshness lifetime for shared caches such as CDN edge caches, in seconds.

Can I check stale-while-revalidate and stale-if-error?

Yes. The analyzer reviews stale directives and compares their budgets when you provide a stale budget.

Which CDN options are available?

You can select Generic HTTP, Fastly, Cloudflare, or Akamai for static behavior notes.

Pump NPSH (Net Positive Suction Head) Calculator & Cavitation Check

Compute the available Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH_a) of a pump and compare it against the required NPSH (NPSH_r) from the pump curve. Head-balance form: NPSH_a = (p_surface_abs - p_vapor) / (ρ·g) + H_static - h_friction. Surface and vapor pressures are absolute; H_static is positive for flooded suction, negative for suction lift. Returns margin (NPSH_a - NPSH_r), ratio (NPSH_a/NPSH_r) and a classification: safe, marginal (margin < 0.5 m), or cavitation likely. If NPSH_r = 0, only NPSH_a is reported.

ESA PB05-Style Brouwer–Lyddane Averaged-Element Orbit Propagator (J2–J6 + Luni-solar)

Propagate near-Earth and GNSS-region orbits with a semi-analytical averaged-element model in the Brouwer–Lyddane / PB05 tradition: orbit-averaged secular drift of the mean elements under the EGM96 zonal field J2–J6 (numerical Gauss-equation averaging — the Delaunay-normalisation analogue with the closed-form J2 rates as a built-in cross-check), first-order J2 short-period mean↔osculating reconstruction, long-period J3 frozen-orbit analysis (e = −J3·sin i/(2·J2·p), ω = 90°), double-averaged luni-solar quadrupole secular effects on an elliptical inclined perturber orbit (the Celletti/Kozai–Lidov term with the 39.23° critical mutual inclination), tesseral ground-track resonance checks (1:1, 2:1, 3:2, 5:2 and small-rational commensurabilities with Earth rotation), sun-synchronous inclination solving, and an in-report RK4 numerical-propagation cross-validation of the averaged model.

Enter the header, keep the CDN selection as Generic HTTP, and set the browser, edge, and stale budgets to zero.

Cache-Control: `private, no-cache`; CDN: Generic HTTP; browser TTL budget: 0 seconds; edge TTL budget: 0 seconds; stale budget: 0 seconds.

Outcome

The analysis confirms that no browser or edge freshness TTL is available and highlights the cache policy for review.
