Siphon means Aqueduct drainage siphon, which is a culvert that directs a drainage watercourse under the aqueduct.

Siphon means a closed conduit, a portion of which lies above the hydraulic grade line, resulting in a pressure less than atmospheric and requiring a vacuum within the conduit to start flow. A siphon utilizes atmospheric pressure to effect or increase the flow of water through a conduit. An inverted siphon might be used to carry storm water flow under an obstruction such as a sanitary sewer.
