なっている。However, in the graphite crucible 1 shown in FIG. 3, the heat capacity is large because the bottom portion is thick and the heat generation efficiency is poor, and in the graphite crucible 1 shown in FIG. 4, the effective heating portion 2 is short. Heat generation efficiency decreases. Therefore, the graphite crucible 1 shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 has a low bottom temperature, the molten aluminum is not sufficiently stirred, and a film made of carbide is easily generated on the surface. This film hinders the evaporation of aluminum and causes the life of the graphite crucible to be shortened.
