In order to learn the aqueduct researches situation in China, we analyze the published literature about aqueduct from 1988 to 2017 in the CNKI database, and process on the CiteSpace visual analysis software. The scientific knowledge maps are obtained to tease out the changes of the literature about aqueduct researches, the cooperation relationship between authors and the institutions, and the keywords about hot spots. They visually reflect the complex relationships among the knowledge groups of aqueduct researches, such as network, structure and crossover, and clarify the current research situation and development trend of aqueduct researches. This study indicates that there are relatively few research literature about aqueduct; The number of authors researching on aqueduct is large, but the number of prolific ones is relatively small. Meanwhile, the collaboration between authors is relatively dispersive, since it does not form close relation. The distribution of research institutions is centralized which is not beneficial to mutual cooperation between research institutions and research institutions. The analysis of keywords shows that the researches about aqueduct are mainly in the aspects of internal stress, external stress, structure and construction technology.
