A heating portion of monocrystalline silicon manufacturing equipment, the heating portion disposed outside and surrounding a quartz crucible and configured to heat a silicon melt in the quartz crucible, the heating portion comprising:
- a heat generation portion integrally molded into a cylinder;
- and
- 2n pieces, n being an integer of 2 or more, of power supply portions configured to supply electric power to the heat generation portion, wherein
- when the heating portion is divided by a virtual plane into two comprising a first heating region located on one side of the heat generation portion with respect to the virtual plane and a second heating region located on the other side of the heat generation portion with respect to the virtual plane, the virtual plane passing through a center axis of the heat generation portion, being perpendicular to the heat generation portion, and being parallel to a central magnetic field line of a horizontal magnetic field applied to the silicon melt, a heat generation amount of the first heating region and a heat generation amount of the second heating region are set to different values by setting a first resistance value and a second resistance value to different values, the first resistance value being a sum of resistance values of the heat generation portion and all the power supply portions provided in the first heating region, the second resistance value being a sum of resistance values of the heat generation portion and all the power supply portions provided in the second heating region,
- the power supply portions each comprise:
- a terminal connected to the heat generation portion;
- and an electrode having one end directly connected to the terminal and the other end connected to a power source,
- a plate-shaped electrical resistance adjuster is interposed between the terminal and the electrode, and
- the first resistance value and the second resistance value are set to different values by making a total number of the electrical resistance adjuster interposed in the first heating region differ from a total number of the electrical resistance adjuster interposed in the second heating region.
