A dynamic alloy wire valve for a multimedia linked scent delivery system consists of a hollow body with one flapper valve inlet which comes directly from a compressor and multiple flapper outlets, each of which feeds a separate fragrance air inlet. Inside the hollow body there is gang of flapper valves, which are arranged radially around a center spindle. At the other end of the flapper valve is valve tip, which fits snugly into a flapper valve seat. The flat metal leaf that forms the body of this flapper valve has an inherent spring tension much like a leaf spring. This spring tension normally keeps the valve tip pressed snugly against the valve seat, in the normally closed position. On the other side of the valve tip, there is attached a valve opener made from a dynamic alloy wire.

1. A valve comprising:a hollow body; a center spindle positioned inside said hollow body and centered in said hollow body; an air inlet in one side of said hollow body; a plurality of air outlets in the other side of said hollow body and positioned around said center spindle, said one side being opposite said other side in said hollow body; a plurality of flapper valves positioned in said hollow body, one of said flapper valves for each of said plurality of air outlets, each of said flapper valves having one end affixed to said center spindle and the other end covering one of said plurality of air outlets, said flapper valves being biased to press said other end against said air outlets thereby keeping said outlets closed; a support hub positioned in said hollow body above said flapper valves; a plurality of dynamic alloy wires suspended from said support hub, one of said dynamic alloy wires for each of said flapper valves, and connected to said other end of said flapper valves; an electrical harness connected to said dynamic wires to provide electricity to said wires to cause said wires to contract thereby causing said flapper valves to lift off of said air outlets and open said air outlets.
