Comparison of the mass-weighted average magnetic field direction projected into the xy plane (φB,avg) to the observationally estimated magnetic field direction φB,pred = φ + 90 (Equation (6)) including all simulation snapshots. The blue dashed line represents φB,avg φB,pred. Overall, we see good agreement between φB,avg and φB,pred.
