The reason for radiators under windows is that you get a cold downward
draft from the window which even in a well heated room makes your feet
feel cold and you perceive that the room is much colder than it actually
is. Putting a radiator under the window counteracts this downward cold
draft.

I was told it aids circulation in the room, evening up the temperature.
Although suspect it was just a convenient place to put it in many rooms.
