Quantum coherence is a fundamental issue in quantum mechanics and quantum information precessing. We explore the coherence dynamics of the evolved states in HHL quantum algorithm for solving the linear system of equation $A\overrightarrow{x}=\overrightarrow{b}$. By using Tsallis relative $\alpha$ entropy of coherence and the $l_{1,p}$ norm of coherence, we show that the operator coherence of the phase estimation $P$ relies on the coefficients ${\beta }_i$ obtained by decomposing $|b⟩$ in the eigenbasis of $A$. We prove that the operator coherence of the inverse phase estimation $\tilde{P}$ relies on the coefficients ${\beta }_i$, eigenvalues of $A$ and the success probability $P_s$, and it decreases with the increase of the probability when $\alpha \in (1,2]$. Moreover, the variations of coherence deplete with the increase of the success probability and rely on the eigenvalues of $A$ as well as the success probability.
