Check your mesh which is allway the cause

I would say incorrect boundary conditions can also cause divergence.

and as a another point, if you're using an explicit transient solver you need to ensure that c= (velocity*delta t)/delta x is less than or equal to 1 for stability, definitely affect convergence.

and this should help troubleshoot your model:

during using solver at start reduce the under relaxation factor . it will solve your problem of divergence ..
