Scalars can be harder to converge, but I've run similar cases without problems. Setting diffusivity to zero does tend to cause problems, so it's not something I'd generally recommend. The value should be around the species diffusivity/density. 

Are the problem areas near any sink/source regions or flow boundaries?Â
